Default Tried helping another rider

Was riding home from work yesterday. Noticed an R6 and a F2 parked somewhere odd for a motorcycle, in the gated driveway of a business. So I said wth and pulled in to see if they needed some help. Guy was on the R6 and woman was on the F2. Turns out the F2 died at the light, no power to anything. Key on wouldn't even give the oil light.

They had checked the fuses but I figured they hadn't checked the master fuse since most people don't know about it. I was ready to give her my spare 30a fuse if the master was blown but turns out it looked good. The guy's brother was coming to lend a hand and try giving it a jump. Suggested trying to bump start it but I didn't think it was the battery, since a weak battery will still give you some gauges.

I couldn't do anything else there so I went on home. If the F2 rider is on here, hope you got her going. Hated to leave y'all stuck out there

Thanks for doing that -- I love to hear stories like that. Most people think I'm strange for stopping and helping. Ive pulled people out of ditches, jump started cars, and made phone calls --just pass around good vibes ya know?
