We had a battery die on us during our last trip. We luckily found a cager with a set of cables that got us on our way. I now carry the set of small jumper cables that come with the batter tender. Problem is that there really not suppose to be used as "jumper cables". There really there as another means of hooking your battery tender up to another battery (not your battery to another battery). So heres the issue.
i've got the battery tender connector coming off my battery leads so i can quickly connect the tender during the winter months. If i connect the "jumper style" connectors to the battery tender connector and then connect to another battery, will the polarity be switched (i.e. should i be connecting the red to the negative and the black to positive).?
Its obviouse what would happen if i was trying to jump from the tender, but trying to jump from bike to bike using these connectors is a different story (or is it?)....
BTW - i did try the search before posting
