    I am concerned about the weather protection of the body work and whether it as as good as the BMW or my old Silverwing. The windshield also looks like it needs an upgrade in size (as usual).

    Will the scoot run with a jump start?

    Battery The battery in the other bike or car, that you want a jump from. Ohhh, you are a EE , you should be able to figure this out then. My tool kit has the tools to get at the battery, and there aren't many tools in the BMW kit.The Torx bit you need, is on the opposite end of the Phillips...

    x adv video

    I am interested in the new Honda X ADV and found this while I was looking. Doesn't say much as I don't speak the young guys language. What really interested me was the MV AUGUSTA. If I ever have a Sport Bike, it should look sort of like that!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js7iU7OLhcw

    Will the scoot run with a jump start?

    If you get some cables, you don't need special tools.Your tool kit has what you need.You might be surprised that many people carry lots of useful tools beyond the tool kit. I carry a pretty extensive tool kit and I imagine that a lot of members here do too.

    Will the scoot run with a jump start?

    Will the scoot run with a jump start?

    Save yourself the work and buy some jumper cables at Cyclegear or any other online MC retailer. In a nutshell, if you don't want to risk frying your electrical system, attach the cables and let the donor charge the dead battery rather then an instant jump. You can run the donor bike, although...

    Battery died after 3 years.

    Every time a lead acid battery goes dead, it will shorten it's life, sometimes dramatically.

    Dropped my GT two days ago.

    You could have made a turn to the opposite curb , while staying slightly up hill then backed to the behind curb, then a turn down hill.

    Lithium ion battery

    Same here, battery tender, original battery, 2013. My last bike, a Silverwing, I replaced the battery at ten years, even though it was still going strong.Always kept it on the battery tender. Hmmm, that means my battery tender is 15 years old, wonder how long that will last??

    Lithium ion battery

    Although not as common as lithium batteries, occasionally lead acid batteries will blow up. One of the first jobs I had as an auto mechanic the owner of the shop told me he had a six volt battery blow up in his car (old cars had six volt systems). I forget what kind of car it was, but, the...

    Yes, I agree. There is something wrong with the fuel system, I suggest you take it to the dealer.
