On my bike (A 250 Ninja) to get at the battery terminals so I can trickle charge the battery I have to take off the pillion seat, side panels, seat, move the fuse box etc all of which is too much fuss to do regularly. So I put this lead in and lead the cable under the locked pillion seat. I also bought the extension lead so I can reach under the cover. It does exactly what I needed. If I am going to be critical I would say that it is only just long enough for what I needed and the fuse is too close to the battery terminals for easy installation - certainly it is not long enough to lead forward into the front of my fairing.

A good lead, that does what it needs to do. This has an inline fuse where my Optimate one doesn't. One review I read said the lead was too short, but for a sports bike where you want to keep the lead tucked out of the way it's just fine. The end cap is a bit chunkier than the standard Optimate one, but keeps the terminal well covered. A spare lead makes keeping two bikes maintained a lot easier.

This fused power takeoff from Optimate is great value and easy to fit (even on my BMW R1100RS, where body panels have to be removed to reach the battery!)
Once the battery was exposed, it was a five minute job to attach the connections to the terminals, tuck the takeoff under the seat, and, Hey Presto, another opportunity to plug heated vest/sat nav/intercome onto my trusty tourer.
Of course, too much power being taken from the battery can lead to problems - but trickle charging with an Optimate after every trip solves that nicely. Recommended.

I sold my bike and left this accidentally on it still attached to the gel battery. Fortunately, they don't cost much to replace. Item is an exact replacment for the one that came with my Optimate 3sp and works fine. Delivery was fast too!

My Yamaha 535 has battery that you can't even check the fluid level (or charge it) without removing it from the bike! And removing the battery is a fiddly, time consuming knuckle scraping affair. So, I bought a sealed-for-life battery. All I needed was to be able to charge the thing whilst it was still on the bike. This little lead provided a perfect solution. Well made and fused. Just connect the charger to the lead and wait until the charger says it's finished. I've used this lead for over a year and the rubber cap has been 100% waterproof.
Would I buy it again if I changed the bike? Yes.

Good As Expected
A good quality cable that makes charging a breeze. Just put one on each of your bikes to keep them topped up in the winter months without hassle.

Optimate connector
Makes life a bit easier when keeping the battery on charge via the Optimate. Do not have to remove side panel or the seat on my Yamaha motor bike. Useful and not too expensive.

Optimate lead.
We have three bikes and use an Optimate lead on all three. This is the shorter version so will remain under the seat for stowing away or possibly be used for fixing out of sight... Read more

Doesnt work with Optimate 4!
I bought 2 of these at the same time as my Optimate 4, cos I have 3 bikes and wanted to switch the optimate between them to keep the batteries from dying. Read more

Good Kit
As described well made fitted a treat. The fuse protection is well worth having as it gives that extra safety to the bike.

Optimate lead.
If you have two bikes keep the one your not riding today in top condition and ready for use, dont let the alarm slowly kill the battery. A sturdy weatherproof lead.
