The thing to remember about our members is that the vast majority seem to have an unnatural morbid hate of anything with a BMW badge on it if it's not the bike. 
They won't admit it of course insisting it's all down  to them finding far superior like products at half the price. 
On the other hand, some of us......
A Merry Christmas to you all and the sooner it's over the bleedin better.
Off to the shed now to plug in Pt No 77 02 8 525 764

"Warranty: 5 Year warranty provided directly from the manufacturer."

"BMW Motorrad Advanced Charger III

Half the price & 2.5 x the warranty.

Exactly.....Deltran for BMW versus BMW for BMW.

Both work - one is just MUCH better  :wonder:

It's a bit like a bit of wire off EBay that won't plug into a horn.  It's not likely to work this side of the Atlantic Ocean.  They don't use proper electricity over there.

+1. BMW parts developed for BMW motorbikes. Simple really.

Now why did you have to go and bring the Mercedes Motorcycle Charger into this discussion

Now that is taking things to extremes.  And you have to cut the plug off it and buy another one. 
What is starting to worry me now is I bought my foot pump in Tesco.  It says Made in China on it.  Like half the bike I suspect.

Once Trump closes off all trade with China...no more BMW foot pumps to the USA.

DAMN

For Mercedes, same as BMW, made by CTEK.

If you go back to what DBLXX saw on his factory tour, obviously not. Or was he just dreaming.

See on the wall....to the right of the tool boxes above the poster.  Yep....I watched my charger get put together - before I bought it
