Battery died while garaged

I have a trickle charger I used on my motorcycle. I'm assuming that probably won't work on a car lol

If the charger can be set for 12V and the car battery is in good shape, it may work. Check the current draw with the charger connected - if greater than current listed on charger label, buy a bigger charger.

Currently using my buddies motorcycle trickle charger on the Z, did last year also and it was fine.

I used to always just disconnect the battery during storage. Most annoying thing you'll have to do is the 3 second window reset again, thats it.
