Default Can I jump start my bike?

Is it possible to jump start a CBR600rr?

What's the best way to do it if so?

Alarm went mental now the battery is only showing 5.6 so not even enough to makes a sound or to prime the bike.

If you are using your car mate then DONT have it running.

Yup that would be a BAD idea.

Glad you said that mate, would have had the car running otherwise. Lucky the car isn't here at the moment too or I would've already tried that.

If it doesn't have enough juice to prime the fuel injection bumping's out of the question.. ask a neighbour... preferably a young female one and offer using her battery in exchange for a "ride" on the bike of course.

I am checking it using a multimeter, but am not too sure what setting it needs to be on any ideas?

The lights are coming on, but there is no prime noise or indicators or anything else?

Probably doesn't have enough juice to prime the fuel system or to make the spark, just leave it, you MAY be able to recover the battery (low low low low chance) but if you keep running things off it already then there's no way in hell
