Motorcycle Jumber Cables
I have battery tender cables on both my bike,and I see so do alot of others. Does someone make a set of jumper cables that woyld aloow me to jump off another bike using those exsisting cables? It just seems logical to do this,since there are already cables hooked to your battery.
Those are going to be some serious tender wires, you might have fun routing wire of that gauge and getting it fastened to the terminals. I believe you will want to use a #10 wire, it's not going to bend and move easily. Then, there is the plug to contend with, going to be hard to find a battery tender plug to carry 30A, but I suppose you could use a different type plug. Let us know what you come up with ..............

Even 10 ga wire might be a little light. You could connect the tender wires up to a good battery for a few minutes, power up the fuel pump. Then disconnect them before trying to crank the bike over. This would probably give enough juice to push start the bike.
Today's batteries are pretty reliable especially if you use a battery tender.
I've never had a battery run so dead that I couldn't push or kick start the bike.

I made up a set out of 8 ga. copper wire with heavy duty alligator clips years ago. They are 6' long...and pretty stiff. Haven't had to use them in years, but I still carry them everywhere...you just never know!!
Added: If you just wanted to recharge your battery from another bike, then the 12 ga. wire (battery tender) and an inline 15a fuse would probably work ok.
