IndianaBob Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Can I jump my motorcycle battery with my car? :stupidsign: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northman Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Yes, but I wouldn't do it. Slow charge it back to life, instead. Ideally, a trickle charge for the next 24hrs ought to bring it back to 100%. A boost is good if you need the power now, but hard on the battery & charging system to replenish a dead battery.

Pete in PA Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I would say go ahead but with 2 cautions. Don't have the engine running on the car and as soon as the bike runs, disconect from the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shovelstrokeed Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I would strongly suggest staying away from the car thing. A battery charger is by far the safer way to go. The load of bringing up a deeply discharged battery can easily smoke your regulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
