CTEK Transform Motorcycle Maintenance at Bike Trollhättan | CTEK Ready

26 March 2024

In an interview with CTEK, Anders Bolin, a long-time veteran in the motorcycle industry, shares his impressive career and how it has shaped his connection to CTEK. He has been working for Bike Trollhättan for more than 20 years and has been involved with CTEK since its foundation. CTEK introduced its new concept CTEK Ready for Bike Trollhättan, however they have already been using it since many years!

CTEK Ready is a new concept where you connect CTEK's CONNECT EYELET to the motorbike to easily charge the 12V battery. When the eyelets are in place, the motorbike gets a sticker that says CTEK Ready; it is ready to be charged!

Anders Bolin shares how the implementation of CTEK Ready has significantly improved the customer experience. "The implementation of CTEK Ready has significantly improved our customer experience. The professional impression when customers see all the motorcycles connected to CTEK chargers is undeniable."

The advantages of CTEK Ready also extend to the showroom, where efficient maintenance is simplified. Swift and straightforward connections to vehicle batteries streamline the charging process, maintaining showroom vehicles in impeccable battery condition.

He points to CTEK as synonymous with high-quality and reliability. "CTEK is synonymous with high-quality battery chargers. For us, it represents reliability and high performance, making them the obvious choice for Bike Trollhättan."

According to him, being linked to CTEK definitely makes them stand out from their competitors. “The professional and flexible solution catches the eye, giving us a market advantage. CTEK has contributed to time and cost efficiency, strengthening our reputation as professional players in the industry."

In the showroom, each motorbike is connected to CONNECT EYELETS and CTEK chargers. The chargers are strategically mounted along the walls, simplifying the maintenance of the motorcycles and contributing to an aesthetically pleasing presentation.

Anders Bolin also tells us that they have a winter storage facility for motorcycles where the motorcycles can be charged during the winter. They have approximately 120 chargers at the winter storage facility. Additionally, there are around 105 chargers available in their motorbike storage/parking workshop.

Each customer is informed about the importance of maintenance charging their motorbike during each visit. CTEK is highly recommended, a recommendation that comes from his own positive experience. This has also influenced sales of CTEK’s battery chargers.

Selecting CTEK Ready signifies a commitment to an elevated customer experience. By seamlessly integrating hassle-free charging solutions, this choice ensures that customers' lives are simplified, with batteries consistently prepared for immediate use.

CTEK Ready's proactive approach extends to reducing warranty claims, as improved battery health naturally minimises the need for claims, saving costs and fortifying your business reputation. This commitment to reliability and quality serves as a competitive edge, distinguishing your offerings by prioritising the ongoing peak performance of customers' vehicles.

Anders Bolin concludes “In my extensive journey within the motorcycle industry, CTEK has been the constant force synonymous with reliability and top-notch quality. When it comes to battery chargers, CTEK is not just a choice; it's the definitive solution. The professionalism, efficiency, and lasting impact it brings to our business make it an indispensable partner for Bike Trollhättan."

Road trip ready: how to avoid a flat battery ruining your summer escape

There’s nothing quite like heading off in a motorhome during summer. Longer days, spontaneous stopovers, coastal roads, mountain campsites and evenings spent outdoors – it’s what motorhome life is all about. But summer adventures also place extra demand on your vehicle’s battery system. Fridges run constantly, lighting stays on later into the evening, phones and devices are always charging and many motorhomes sit unused between trips.
