Is it ok to keep the maintainer plugged into the battery on bike? Ive seen people with cords connected to battery. Same type of cord i got with my $10 charger.
Is it actually alright to plugin the charger/maintainer with the battery connected to bike still and the charger? Or should i remove battery everytime to charge.
You need to find the literature for your charger. Some chargers are not maintainers and continually applying a 3-5amp charge to a bike will destroy your battery, could cause swelling and in extreme cases, ruptures. Long term use of trickle chargers can have similar effects if they do not have a maintain-mode.
Battery Tenders (brand) chargers usually operate in the 1.5amp range and perform as well as a 3amp charger of some other brands.
I agree with this statement... What brand charger do you have? Pic?
