Do any of you light work on your quad. You should be able to boost it with a car or battery charger. If you batt is dead it would be best to charge it at a low amperage overnight.

If you get around to jump starting...remember to have the donor vehicle NOT running. That say the volts wont be higher than 12.5 volts.
If the car or truck is running, the alternator can make the volts up to 16, and this can be fatal to some electrical pieces of the quad.
What might be easier on the quad, is to hook up a strap, and pull and bump start it.
