No, I just charge it enough to run the bike. The TW electrical system is very good.

If I don't charge the battery, I can still start the engine with the electric start, but I can't touch the throttle for a few minutes. If I try to open the throttle rapidly, it will die. I need to be patient, and then sneak up on the the throttle a little at a time. Once I'm able to rev it, it's fine for the rest of the day.
