A while back Chris made a video about jump starting a Goldwing with a battery booster. He said not to use a booster like a NOCO or any other brand to jumpstart a Goldwing. I assumed he would make a follow up and maybe he did and I didn’t see it. Does anyone have any info if it’s safe or not to jumpstart with a NOCO Booster?

I don't recall saying that you should not use a booster to jump start your motorcycle. In fact, I think that would be safer than jump starting using a car battery from a running car. I did suggest that you should remove FUSE #25 before jump starting to protect your audio system from potential damage.

Thanks for the reply. Yes you are correct you did say to remove the fuse. And you’re right you said there were some rumors or chatter about people frying the audio unit after jumpstart. Did you ever confirm that removing the fuse would protect the system

It is difficult to confirm that, but I have not heard of anyone saying their audio system has been damaged when they removed the fuse. Granted, most did not suffer damage even with the fuse left in place, but the only cases I have heard of damaged audio systems were from those who did not know to remove the fuse.
