I like sticking my tongue across the two terminals of my motorcycle battery to see if it is good.Someone will get this eventually Dragon NO, NO, NO - You got it all wrong! You have it confused with timing an engine. Back in the day they way to time an engine was to: 1. Disconnect the #1 plug wire, pull the boot back & insert the plug wire in your left ear. 2. Hold a flashlight in your teeth 3. Grip the #1 plug w/ your left hand 4. Start the engine Then look @ the timing mark. The voltage kick would cause your eyes to blink every time the #1 plug fired |

I want to get a RAT my Heritage. Can probably pick up a suprlus one off an old Intruder pretty cheap. (if you are an ex-airdale you will know what this is) Should charge plenty good at anything over 300 miles an hour. |

Just take a wire and jump the terminals. You can tell how good the battery is by how good the spark is.. (yes that is a joke! Please do not do it!) Actually that is just what I do to test lead-acid batteries to see if there is a damaged cell. The temporary short makes a damaged or faulty cell create extra bubbles and they will be visible thru the white opaque plastic.  |
