1. Personally I'm not using my optimate any more after too many problems with it not charging batteries on my various toys - which my accumate almost always charges with no problems.
Advice is not to trust it as much as the advertising says !
(I've also just bought a swedish job to try as an alternative)

2. If you ever get poor charging performance with the bike electrics still connected - its probably the regulator ! (I've just had that problem on my tt2 for instance). More expensively, it could be an alarm problem if you have one fitted.have one.
SO - just disconnect the wiring and try charging again.
(What - you've never heard of problems with duc regulators :-) )
