[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 1219379, member: 615"] If the bike battery was at a low charge when you connected the auto battery you may have dumped too much current too rapidly into the bike battery. When charging a bike battery the charging current should not exceed 3 amps. On my battery's label the maximum recommended current is 1.2 amps, 10% of the 12 AmpHour rating. When charging current exceeds the recommended maximum the battery may overheat causing the electrolyte solution to bubble creating hydrogen gas. [/QUOTE]
