Their range today extends to lithium batteries with Techmate offering a range of specialised consumer & professional units.
The Optimate 4 can be used at the entry level as all rounder for maintaining a new bike or battery over it's life cycle. Suitable got Scooters, ATV, Lawn Tractors, Jet Skis & large or small motorcycles. But is also specifically designed for motorcycles with CAN Bus electrical systems. Changeover between standard & CAN Bus modes takes only a few seconds.
NB: M.A.P recommends the 4DP as it is the most versatile unit, however If you have a new battery in your bike and just wish to maintian it, then Optimate2 may be a better choice. OR, if you want a unit that puts our more current (up t 5A) eg. also for workshop use, consider Optmate6.
Note that to connect via the EURO Power oulet socket on a BMW or others, you need to purchase the SAE-DIN O9 Lead Option (see recommended below)
Let this video explain it.
And here is how to do that mode change-over.
