Honda is not large enough to put 125 amps into the battery. Of course the Honda can fully charge the battery... you just need to dial down the amps to about 80 and you should be fine.
I believe the 80 percent is 80 percent of the 125 maximum amps or 100 amps maximum charge rate. Honda might hold this charge level but I think you are better at 60 or 70 percent that would give 75 or 87.5 amps. It just takes longer. Magnum does not stop charging at any specified battery level.
The charging rate is not linear unless you have a lithium battery. With lead-acid you are looking at 2 to 4 hours to get 90 percent charged. The last 10 percent will take another 2 to 4 hours.
