I've done it numerous times without the car started..never had a problem.

 

thanks, ill post back up if successful or i don't blow up....:fire

 

I started mine off the car twice in the last week with the engine running , no problems other than trying to disarm my bloody bike alarm system

 

I hope he didnt blow up

 

:lol

 

haaaaaa. actually ended up not having to use the car. Let it sit for about an hour when I put new exhaust on it. And then it started up.








and im happy I didn't blow up:hammer:

 

I've used the car (last night actually) and my buddy always used the car for his gixxer. With it running no problem. The only time I leave the car off is for smaller batteries or non 12v systems.

 

12 Volts is 12 Volts no matter how big the battery is. Perfectly safe to do.

Voltage isnt the only factor...

 

Explain please?

besides the volts theres a difference in AMPs between cars and bikes, but even if there is a difference in the amperage, as long as the car has more amps than the bike (it always will) the only thing that should really affect is how fast the starter on the bike spins, so it shoulden't be a problem especially just for a quick jump start

 

I'll say it again, 12 Volts is 12 Volts and the starter will only draw X amount of amps whether the battery is a motorcycle battery of a battery the size of your house. I=V/R or Current=Volts/Resistance. Put that in your electric cigarette and smoke it.
