you can jump start a bike from a car and no it will not blow a fuse , i have done it many times , the best way to do it is to use the car battery to charge the m/c battery or you have happen what Lowell is talking about , a dead battery is a dead battery and our staters are not the most powerful in the world and you will need a charged battery to power the stater . i have a battery tender plug wired to my battery and the end is in the gas cap area but it is about 18 in. long so when i plug it into my jumper cables or battery tender i am a long way away from the gas cap . i used to carry a spare battery before i changed my starter to a Vmax 4 brush starter , it starts as easy as new wing now , even on the cold days.

the big ? is was i speeding ? to tell the truth , i have no idea , i was driving in the rite lane ,i saw the pd a few cars behind me , i changed lanes to make a left turn at the traffic lite , pulled in to the turn lane waited for the lite to turn green the pd was behind me made my turn , drove 1 blk , turn on turn sig. to make my turn into the co. parking lot and than the party lites came on . where he said he clocked me was about 4 miles from where he stopped me and he did not turn on his lites untill i had made my left turn off the main 4 lane hwy , witch i think is smart because with all the heavy traffic if he had turned the lite show on and hit the big horn everybody would have freaked , brakelites and bumpers . about the speeding , i was driving with the flow of traffic and was not passing anyone , if the flow of traffic was speeding than yes i was , i do not look at the speedo in traffic , my main b###ch is that i was told it was my turn to get a ticket and the leo did not like the company i work for and what he said i was doing and what he wrote down are 2 dif. things annnnnnnd buy the way HE WAS NOT 4 FEET TALL , he between 5'2 and 5'4 he was city pd not a deputy or a state trooper . i am going to the court house tomorrow with cash in hand to pay the fine , ask some ? , if i don't like what i here i'll just never drive in the city again , i don,t live or work in the city , i just drive through it , shop there and eat there and i can stop doing that . the company i work for is rite on the city limet line , Thom

when i tryed using a m/c jack , it was not high enough to get the rear tire off , sometime when i want the bike real high , i jack it up on a m/c jack than put the 2 jackstand under the crash bars , than remove the m/c jack and use a floor jack but i allways strap down the forks Thom

i just emailed him to pass along your message Thom

my trick for pulling the rear tire only and i have a trailer hitch is to put it up on the center stand than put 2 jack stands under the motor crash bars and use a floor jack under the rear shock bracket just in front of the rear tire . all i have to pull off is the brake caliber and mufflers . a Condor wheel chock instead of jack stands work too and makes it easyer to strap down the front forks .

got my 1st speed ticket in 21 years yesterday , i was in the rite lane , not passing anyone on a 4 lane , lots of cars around me , the speed limit drops from 60 to 55 to 50 to 45 in 1.5 miles . i ask him to ck. my DL , and it shows that i am a safe driver and please call in a 27 and it prove i am a good driver , he said that it dos not make a dif. if i am a safe driver , it is my turn to get a ticket , the law of averages . WHAT !! i was thinking all these years i did not have to be a good driver , to keep from getting tickets , i just wait for my turn ! after he wrote the ticket and gave it to me , he told me a story about a few years ago he came to the company i work for to pick up somebody on a wants and warrants and the manager stalled him so the bad guy could slip out the back and how he hounded the company until he cought the badguy , that was 3 managers ago ! by the way , i was driving the company truck and he stopped me in the company parking lot . he told me i was doing 53 in a 45 zone and i did not read the ticket until i cooled downed 2 hours later , the ticket said i was doing 58 in a 45 zone and my court date is 11/04/08 at 9am !!! that only gives me Monday to pay the 210 dollar fine ! So if you are in Rockport Tx. it do's not make a dif. if your a good driver and drive with flow of the trafic , it mite be your turn to get a ticket and or it mite be what the sign reads on your truck . Ok i feel beter now i have let off some steam , i know i could fight the ticket and with the rite lawyer i would win than i would make all of Rockport PD mad at me and i would have to move , but i kinda like this town so i'll just put my tail between my legs and pay the ticket . [ i wonder if the Judge owns a RV , he, he , ] Thom
