OK, I'll buy that........if and only if you can NOT go to the next shelf over.....or to the hardware/big box/auto store down the street....... and find exactly the same charger with no mention of motorcycle on the label for less money.

A battery is a battery. Any small charger should work fine. The fact that it does NOT say "Motorcycle" on the label means absolutely nothing.

No, sorry, apparently it does do something; it makes you FEEL better. If you don't mind wasting a few dollars to get that feeling, then I'm good with that.
