Is it ok to boost a bike with a car battery (jumper cables). What can happen eg. fry computer, bike battery, starter.

Just don't have the car running. The alternator output from your car is WAY higher than the bike is designed for. Hook up the ground (-) last.

Never too much horsepower, never too old to use it!
