I am a tech guy. Anti Gravity lithium battery(cheapest weight loss) has restart technology so you are never left stranded with a dead battery. Plus lithium batteries have longer warranty and last 2-5 times longer. The lithium jump packs are great but they last 5-7 years but you must remember to keep them charged. The newest tech are SUPERCAPACITOR jump starts like AUTOWIT. It is BATTERYLESS tech and uses the weak battery to charger the supercapacitor to jump your bike. Super capacitors last 20 years or longer and do not need charging. They sell for $128.
the camera drop and face.... is the best part of this video. Excellent video John.
That's awesome kinfolk and I learned something again from your content. I didn't realize I could jump start my bike (2010 ultraclassic) from the starter bolt🤦♂️ lol . Thanks for another great video brother🤙🍻🍻🍻
Thanks again, purchased the HD version. As a precaution. Wouldn't you know it. On a charity run at the end of the ride. I use the kill switch and forgot to switch off the bike. You know it I come pack to hear that sound no biker wants to hear. No problem the jump box is in the saddle bag. The tip on the touring bike made it easy. Thanks again keep up the good work.
Great that you left the OOPS in at the end, makes me feel right at home although in my shop there would be a loud SOB at the same time....again great video very informative, thanks John
Just wanted to say thanks for posting this. This is one of those things that you don't think you need until you need it. For me, I was lucky enough to have a friend with jumper cables when I left my headlight on. Realizing how easy it is to do that, I now have the GB40 in my saddlebag. I opted to add both the NOCO adapter. The NOCO adapter in case I need to jump my bike, the clamps in case I need to start someone else's bike or car. The whole thing really doesn't take up too much saddlebag room. Thanks again dude.
Just ordered one of these in the UK, 86 quid, always wanted a jump box 👌🏻 Thanks for the vid dude!
Great tip on using starter connector on touring! I always assumed I'd have to take seat and caddy off to get at the battery.
Glad I watched this, thinking of a jump pac and never really thought about the clamp size being a problem. Thanks.
John, as always you gave us some excellent information about jump packs. Thank you.
I have been using a NOCO for about 3 years. I have used it to jumpstart my truck and other vehicles, as well as my DRZ-400 and 883 Iron. They are very convenient. I keep it in my saddlebags, and the accessory pigtail is installed on the bike as well. I have had no issues at all with it.
Your videos have inspired me to become a real mechanic!! I really love your videos they’re always perfect!!
Thanks for the video John Maxwell. I have the 1000 cca version of the amazon bought jump box. I didn’t know about that adapter though so I appreciate you including the link below. Going to order one today 👍
Love your videos young man. Thanks.
I have had the noco for a few years works well thankful I have used it more charging stuff when camping on rides.
Just a comment on Noco's warranty....they are absolutely amazing. Without going into extensive details, they stepped up and went way beyond my expectations with one of their charger adapters when it caused and issue with my car.
Got stranded out in the middle of nowhere national parkway. Stopped for a few, got back on & no go. Hours later as I was walking, a guy was nice enough to stop. When I told him my battery died, he drove me back to jump start it. I always carry a battery jumper with me from then on.
Great information as always. I got a jump starter last year and it has already paid off. as i used it last month on my girlfriends Honda Shadow. (I unplugged her tender and forgot to plug it back in)
Love the hammering! I just removed a slip on exhaust and can relate.
John dig your delivery. Short to the point and entertaining while being very informative. I am now a subscriber. Buying the HD version for the a. Support my dealer b. The Harley warranty. Thank you.
Carry a jump box on my bike, Never know when you or a buddy may need one. Great Video.I use a Rockford Pocket Power Pack, modified for bikes.
John I've been using the Noco version for over 4 years because 1 of my bikes was a Vrod I also use Noco battery tenders I've had no problems with any of these products
😂 the drop face!! Those things are handy. I have a generic Wally World one. First time I used it was when I heard a motorcycle trying to start, and it obviously needed some juice. Worked like a charm!
Good info thank you. My wife got me the Duracell jump box from Target I think for Christmas, it was about $100 I believe. It doesnt have the leed like what you installed but it has the small alligator clips and I have used it a few times and it works pretty well. It however would be probably a pain to jump your softail but thankfully for my 03 softail it works. Interesting new products and thanks for showing that.
Great pre work video John! Stay safe out there bud.
John, solid info about jump pack. 👍
Good info John, been thinking about getting one to go along with my other roadside repair goodies. Good comparison...thinking I’ll go with e HD variety. Thx RSMF
I had to jump my 22 heritage 114 once and used a long allen wrench to get to the positive. Bought the Noco jump box and wiring .Glad i haven't used it yet but glad i installed it.
Thanks John, I just ordered the jump box and adapter! Better safe then sorry!
THANK YOU!!! At r the start of the vid you stated that you CAN jump a bike from a car... So many people think this is blow up the electrical system on your bike. I don't know why. A 12v system is a 12v system. I tried to help a guy with a dead soft tail at Laconia Bike week last year and he refused and called a tow truck cuase he thought I would damage his bike jumping from my truck. BUT THERE YOU GO WORLD, FROM A HARLEY TECH!!! YOU CAN JUMP A BIKE (not a old 6v one though) FROM A CAR WITH ZERO ISSUES as long as you don't hook up backwards or dead short something.
I was wondering if battery tender leads would work, glad you mentioned it being smaller Gage wire.
Interesting video thanks for sharing
Just subscribed love the videos!!!!!
Nice video. Thanks for the excellent way to help us out. To avoid opening the battery compartment on my bike, I am thinking of adapting my powering the load connectors to an SAE male end so that I can use the same SAE (power tender) connector that was previously installed on my batter end terminals.
Haha I love your attitude and also when you hit the boxes around haha funny and knowledgeable !!
I put the Pod-X1 on my 18 SGS and my 18 Breakout 114. Haven't had to use them but I'm ready in case. Getting to batteries in either one is too big of a pain. So much easier to just plug jumper in to pigtail and get it done!
I've been using all NOCO products for several years. I've only had one problem with an early version battery charger. I contacted NOCO and they handled the issue quickly and in excellent customer service fashion, which is unusual these days. They replaced the faulty charger with a newer version. If I remember correctly all I paid was to ship the old charger back initially. I've left out some details of our correspondence which aren't relevant here, I only use NOCO products now. I've found that they have superior quality products, even their battery post washers are better than any others I've used.
Camera drop face 👍👍
Broken ass exhaust bracket 👍👍
Informative video Priceless
Thank You Brother!
Probably the most ironic thing is, I just watched this video today, and yesterday I had to try and jumpstart my bike using one of those battery packs. If only I had seen your vid a day earlier. I didn't realize the starter terminal could be used, and of course I removed the seat and battery top to get at the terminals. As it turned out, every time I got the bike to start I would remove the alligator clamps and the bike would die. Pretty sure it's the voltage regulator now as I was able to check the battery with a tester and it's fine. Thanks for this video though, it has been very helpful.
Thanks for the vid john, was very helpful for me when I installed the lead kit to my 2018 softail street bob, tucked it away under right side cover like u did mate 👍 I ride a lot of outback Australian roads & that extra piece of mind knowing I can jump start is great. I’ve bought the GB20, think it’s big enough. Hey one problem I have with my street bob is the 13 litre tank, have u done any tank swaps for customers with softail street bob?
Very informative vid JM, thanks for the info, I think the HD unit gets the nod for my Dyna, as you showed us its a lot more accessible than on yours 😥
John Maxwell - I rewatched your video on jump starting a bike from a cage (Note to self : Don't start the cage.) Thanks for that link so I didn't have to go digging through your videos to find it. 👍
How about some info on how you would go about jump starting a bike from another bike? Would you recommend the same procedure as jumping off a cage?
And if you're up for answering that, how about going over the risks of push starting a modern bike?
I like the idea of hooking up the lead cable for easier access. I bought the HD model.
Picked up one from Interstate Battery, which have two different sizes, so I went with smaller which would jump small car. Interstate's also has adapters to charge all types of phones, etc and not just for jumping bike. I think their large was in the neighborhood of $120. and smaller was $100 if my memory serves me correctly. Also comes with case to keep everything in.
I have the NOCO GB20 sport. and it works just fine on my 80cu/in evo motor. the "Sport" means it has the alligator clips like the Harley jump pack shown here.
Go with HD one. Less hassle than waiting on mail. As you said possible warranty pains. I have to say if you buy from your local dealer and parts are ordered correctly aka part numbers. It will fit. IMOP. Ride Safe
Great commentary
Like many products, look like they are pretty much made by the same people with different labeling. Good video. Thanks John.
I guess I should have actually said it, haha. Yea, noco actually makes it.
I just got my NOCO GB40 thru Home Depot for $107 and it the terminal clamps are the thin ones just like Harley. Sweet.
Cool, right on.
At 7:55 John's mind takes a very dark turn.
But, thanks for the info John. I need to get something on both the bikes. Always good stuff from you.
Guess I have more stuff to buy lol. Thanks John
great video as all ways nice too I can jump from the starter. about how many jumps can you get from a charged unit and what is the charge time to refill the pack. and I hope you helped with Broken ass bracket
Holy balls. Thanks for this. Been looking for this exact info. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
the look on your face at the end... hilarious!
It s funny. You came up with the video just when my sportster let me down in a city. Unable to start. Lucky coincidence was it happened literally right in front of a strangers bikers garage who just came home. So i asked him if he can help me. He had a charger and was kind enough to put me back on road. I gave him bottle of Jack and made a new friend.
hey bought the noco gb20 have it charged and ready if i need it from what i read its a 1 year on sevice it should work for my bike a few things i would do diffrent 1 a hard case for storage 2 a cigrette plug does not come with one and 3 cables a tad bit longer great videos keep up the great vlogs and ride safe
Yo I have been following you for years and I just had my checked and I had to resub to you. I was wondering why I haven’t seen you in a while.
Good info. I have an Evo Touring bike. I have the Harbor Freight jump pack. The clamps are a little smaller than NOCO and larger than HD. I'm just a broke azz old retired guy so thats how I get by.
GB20 is on clearance at some Tractor Supply Co. Enough power for a 4.0. Mine was $47.69 out the door in MI.
The new heritage battery is truly a great big pain in the A$#. Was a pain when I installed the MTX SPEAKER. A few guys talking about jump start. Doesn't always work, trust me I've been there.
Good information. Hey can you explain how to adjust the clutch engagement on the lever? If I let my lever out 1/8 of an inch my clutch engages. So there’s no friction zone, makes it difficult to do low speed turns and stuff. .
Good info... but wow what a project to get to do a battery replacement...problems with batteries now running down with all the fancy electronic's, gadgets with memory causing a draw on the battery...I been keeping my Harley on a battery tender year around now when home parked in the garage.
Hi john just fyi noco also makes the slimmer jumper clamps i got them with my noco unit as accessory item for my glide before harley came out with their version works great they also make a slim case for the gb40 (gbc13 case) that fits nice in my saddle bag with my tool roll
I found that after filming! It’s actually linked in the description, too. Thanks for sharing the Information with other viewers, too!
Great Video John! I have a 22' Road Glide. Rather than directly tying into the battery to tender/trickle can I just clamp off of the positive starter post and a ground?
Love the channel and videos. Great sense of humor amd way of explaining things. Think you might make the ride up to Laconia NH this year (June 8-16 2019) for bike week?
Would love to see a video on how Laconia compares to other rallys. Never had the chance to get to another one myself.
I’m set to go for the whole week.
hey brother..dig the content, off topic quick question for you...how do you like the softail's windshield? I'm curious why you went that way vs a street glide potentially and am curious if the wind deflection is sufficient in your "highly trained, unproffesional opinion!" I like that you can take all the goodies off of the softail and make it an "around towner" unlike the fairing touring models, but really curious if you feel the windshield is hapnin vs...Thanks Brother
Good video and learned a lot.👍 Don't wish a dead battery on any one. Would have been nice to see them in action.
Also do they work on all types of batteries.
Antigravity has some of the best batteries....CTEK has some great re-junivator/refresh units, 2nd to none. Jay Leno swears by them.
I liked the, "Maxwell's" thingy on your front door. Good to see you're a multi-dimensional guy.
hey John, got my new softail slim and this is the first thing i need to research since i have a portable jump starter. the starter actually is easy to locate after removing the metal plate. just lift the rubber boot and connect the positive, the negative can connect to either metal (not chrome). this should work correct?
HI! John hope all is well with you and your new shop! Sure miss your vidoe's.
Thanks
Wait for customer appreciation days at Harley and save 20%, make it about the same price.
Can you use this jump pack if you have a lithium battery in your motorcycle
Thanks for this. Can't even find the battery on my HD street 500.
John really enjoy and look forward to the your videos. Do you have any plans on changing your camshaft in your heritage? If you do I would enjoy seeing a video on that
I probably will eventually, and if I do, there will be a video.
Nice to have that all pre-rigged and ready. Looked like a pain in the Adze to hook up, but hey sometimes that's just part of the fun.
I laughed at the camera drop part......does that make me a bad person???
You were supposed to laugh, so it’s ok.
great video! Very helpful and well done. One quick question concerning the battery tender lead coming from the bike; couldn't you likewise use that connection to jumpstart the battery? Meaning, could you use the tender lead and the jump box (if you had a similar adaptor coming from the jump box)?
Many thanks!
I thought the same thing, but in this video he mentions the gauge of the wire for the tender connection might be to low for the amount of charge coming from the battery. Worse scenario might be it melts ?
Could you the leads that come with the bike for the battery tender? NOCO makes the connector!
NOCO sells the clamps for motorsports separately and not bad of a price
What’s your thoughts in the tour pak. Was looking at getting one but three reviews weren’t that great.
Can you use the SAE adapter on newer bikes to jump start the bike? I use to keep the batteries charged but can it handle the power of a jump start?
Dropped camera face!! 👍👍
Hello John, how about an update on this. Have you needed it since you bought it? And if so how well did it work? Also wondering how long is it holds a charge without using it. I'm the type of persons that will stick it in my saddlebags and forget all about it.
Or you can hitch up to the battery tender like on my 2006 softail ! It works been there done it
John, I have a GB40 in my 18 Ultra and my 19 FLHT. I take it on my XL1200 just in case. Never leave home without it ? Rock on
A great tool for a tech to have. There are always dead bikes coming in the shop.
Harley version of battery clamps look cheaper :/ Great video informative as always John Thanks for getting this video out here :)
They’re still Noco. They’re just sold separately from their units.
Just got this in.. man what a PITA to go into the battery compartment. Anyway, question! What did you mean in 7:44 by preventing positive touching negative? The space is so small I don’t think I can keep both wires from touching at one point.. am I misunderstanding what you said here?
Noco is great on warranty.
soo bad ass, im getting one
Hi John! I got a 2015 Harley 48 with 1300 miles on it. Since last winter running little rough. Showing P0108 and P0113 code. Battery was weak, which I replaced with a Harley battery. Could you help me with my problem please.
Is a Harley-Davidson HOG Booster Portable Battery Pack Suitable for a 2020 CVO Tri Glide
Thank you Harley for making our lives easier with each new model. Progress?
Handling upgrades are major progress. I feel the handling of the bike a lot more than I have to deal with the battery!
mini jump pack is the best tec since the phone easy to carry don't forget to keep it charged!
Since I have the battery tender plug, do I need to install the additional piece to my battery? I’m running out of room on my battery with aftermarket add-ons.
Just wondering if you can boost the lithium Harley battery with the Harley or NOCO battery pack?
Can you use this jump pack if you’re running a 14 V lithium battery in your motorcycle already
What software do you use to edit your videos ? if it is already explained in another video plese point me in the right direction
