If it's a factory-installed sealed battery, charge it at 10 amps for 1 hour or charge it at 2 amps for 5 to 10 hours. If in doubt, use an automatic charger. For even better results, keep the bike on a battery tender whenever it's parked, which cannot overcharge the battery.
A fully charged sealed Harley battery should read no less than 12.8 volts a minimum of two hours after charging. Any less voltage means the battery is failing and will eventually need to be replaced.

How do you charge 2004 Harley sportster battery?
I just replaced a Harley battery with a YUASA, YTX20L-BS. It has the same construction, AGM, as the original, Harley battery. The charging information was on the top of the battery. It specified 13.00 volts as a full charge. A normal charge rate is 1.8A for 5 to 10 hrs. A quick charge is 9.0A for 1 hr. It is important not to let the battery get hot to the touch. Here are some useful websites: http://www.yuasabatteries.com/motor_battery.asp http://www.rversonline.org/ArtAGM.html Note the 14.0v maximum. Some auto chargers put an alternating current (AC) component on the output. You may wish to consider a charger designed for your battery to optimize its life. If you have accessories or an alarm make sure you don't need to disconnect them before charging the battery to prevent damage.
