OK to use one of these on the Swing? I was on the silverwing.org site and they had a discussion on putting chargers on. Didn't find anything about the Jr modeln though. I just called my dealer service and they said a Junior is fine.

That is what I use. Well, I've used it in the winter time when my Reflex was parked in garage. I don't see why this would not work for SW.

Miro, on the .org site they were talking about different types of batteries requiring different types of chargers, that's all. You know, gell type versus GMA versus sealed, whatever, can't remember. So I got concerned.

Old Dave In Western Nebraska U.S.A. I use a "Bell" Battery - Charger It is a great piece of equipment from www.amazon.com/Bell-Power-Sports-Motorcycle-Battery-charger/dp The Juicer Battery Charger No 1002174 12 V I keep my Swing plugged in to this charger all the time when I am not using it. Like a car, the clock etc. will run the battery down. This has a "green" light when it is charged and a "red" light when it is charging. I purchased it at Wal Mart but have noticed this one in the store lately.....
