Can a Motorcycle Jump-Start a Car?
1 Answers
Motorcycles cannot jump-start cars. The specific reasons are as follows: Reason: A motorcycle battery cannot start a car, as the massive starting current would puncture the motorcycle battery's plates, rendering the battery useless. Special Circumstances: If both the motorcycle battery and car battery are 12V, jump-starting is possible. Relevant information about jump-starting a car is as follows: Jump-starting: Also known as a boost or jump, it involves connecting another vehicle's battery or an external power source to a vehicle with a depleted battery to start it. Usage: Once the vehicle is started, its normal charging system can recharge the battery, meaning the auxiliary power source can be removed. As long as the vehicle's charging system is functioning properly, a normally running vehicle will restore the battery's charge.
