Batteries should last longer than two seasons on a tender,even the plain old lead acid batteries that you have to add distilled water to when they get low. Some have had good luck with plain old Wally World maintainers, and even their Everstart batteries,but I like Yuasa or Interstate batteries along with the Yuasa battery tender I have now. I have a AGM Yuasa battery that's over 6 years old now.Costlier,but worth the money. You might check the charging system on your machine also. If it's not charging close to 14 volts while running,could be a regulator problem that's draining batteries down as you ride,shorting out cells and may not be your battery tenders fault.See if this helps on different type batteries. http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/tec...attery_basics/

I store my snowmobiles all summer and my ATVs all winter and the batteries last at least 4 year or more. I do not take them out of the machines or use a tender and store them in a shed.
I just use the Cheap Wal-Mart EverStart batteries.
At most I may start the machine up once a month and let it idle for 10 minutes.
