This morning, I stopped at a gas station for some motion lotion. Up in the parking places there was a man with a jeep and the hood was open. He had jumper cables in his hand, so it was clear what the dilly-o was on his end.
After I went inside to buy something for my mouth hole, I came back out and the man was having an issue finding someone with a car that was aligned in the correct way so that the batteries were close enough to connect the jumper cables. As I walked by, he asked if the battery terminals on my bike were easily accessible, and if so, could I come shimmy up to the side of his jeep so he could swipe a volt.
I thought about it for a half second, and told him for the sake of my motorcycle, I don't think it would be a good idea to jump a car from my motorcycle's battery. I said, sorry, good luck, and at that moment someone with a workable engine bay rolled up and they sorted it out from there.
Was I wrong in denying him my sweet supple battery juices? I would figure it'd blow a fuse or something trying to draw the amount of amps it needs to crank a jeep engine (or whatever car it is).
