Re: If the bike isn't charging correctly, how many miles?

Again, as I've said on here before, if you jump the bike from a car battery, DO NOT HAVE THE CAR ENGINE RUNNING, like you would if you're jumping another car. The battery will be enough to easily turn over and start the bike. Disconnect the cables as soon as the bike starts. If you have the car engine running, you can easily fry everything on the bike from the high alternator output, if you have a short or electrical problem anywhere, and possibly burn out the starter motor. Just hook the cables battery to battery, (+) to(+), (-) to (-) terminals, connect and disconnect (-) first.
