install ctek mx 5.0 battery charger cable plug to 2017 Gen2 BMW S1000R

 I already own the CTEK MX5 charger to look after a large static caravan battery over the winter months

Included with the charger is 2 sets of adapter cables with detachable plug.
 1x crocodile clips, and 1 x M6 eyelet

Unbeknowns to me this is a perfect fit onto the S1000r motorcycle battery.






only downside I can see is that the eyelet to plug (indeed the entire cable to the charger) has no inline fuse.


to fit
remove the seat and pillion
remove the battery terminals (1 at a time) and attach the eyelets.

I chose to route the cable up into the pillion area, so i can attach the charger easily just by using the key

under main seat with the terminals attached
