Guess I ain't been using the van enuf to keep the battery charged, at 2* this morning, just chattered, motor dint turn over. Finally got to use that tiny Lithium jumper battery. Spun it over like it was a warm summer day!
That's good to know had a couple of the old jumper boxes and they didn't work so good on the truck, worked okay on the lawn mower.

I want to get the high capacity Anti Gravity Li jumper battery to carry on my Glide, lot more amps to turn over that S&S. Supposed to work on big diesels, kind that carry two or more batteries linked together. Anti Gravity has a pigtail to go on the bike battery that uses the same plug as Battery Tenders; you can jump it or charge it off the same pigtail, no pulling the seat or battery cover. Ain't a kickstarter, but next best thing for an electric start only bike.

Heyhey, all our Canadian brothers: It looks like the MoCo will NOT renew its relationship with Deeley! Apparently they're going to be just like any other dealer in the US!

Hopefully it will. At least it should take an additional layer of profit taking away and allow the dealers more flexibility.
