Reply To: GT125R Cold Weather Death
Newer Generation 125 engines & their electrics (RC / P models) , don’t really like bump starts and are VERY hard to start if it feels like parts are not in spec.
~if you try to start the bike with Jump Leads of a RUNNING CAR/VAN = It will never ever start again, bike is too fried.
If you want to use a car or van to start = Remove the battery out of the car / van
or i would recommend to just get a “Motorcycle Charger” (not a car one!) and charge the bike battery , weak batteries make it hard to start too.
I am digressing , but i hope that made sense.
Im refereing to a running bump start sorry, to get the engine turned over manually. I bought a new 12amp batt like you said also.
