Default jump starter for 01' f4i

guys can i use this product link as a jump starter for my bike.i am not sure if the rating would work out for a motorcycle.right now everytime my baby wont start in the cold i have to remove the battery trickle charge it and put it back.moreover screwing up the +ve terminal of the battery is a pain in the wrong place as the battery sits at an angle and all kinds of wiring come in ur way.so can i use the product in the link as a jump starter. another question i have is can we jump start a motorcycle by hooking up to a car?xcuz me if this is a stupid question.guys i need some quick reps so that i can grab this deal.many thanks in advance.

Dont go through the trouble of trickle charging your bike everytime you run your battery dead. Just put it in second gear and have someone push you down the road and release the clutch. Make sure your Key is on and the starter kill switch isnt off.

As for it not starting in the cold. Take your battery out during the winter.

Also, I dont think you have to take the battery out to charge it. The mechanic told me the batteries nowadays are not like the old kind you used to have to refill, it is a closed battery, so just pop off the seat and get the computer box out of your way and hook up your charger. I have mine hooked up now and I start the bike every couple days, seems ok.

thanks for those info guys but u forgot about the product i mentioned in my post.it is like a portable battery.if it can be used that makes it easy to start the bike by just connecting it to the terminals whereever my bike is parked.someone mentioned that we dont hv to pop the battery out to charge it .the problem is i have a open parking lot and theres no electrical outlet around so i cant just remove the seat and ecu and charge the battery from the bike itself.so guys kindly look at the product and let me know.
