Talking Cycle Pump Air Compressor to your door.

Cycle Pump - Motorcycle Air Compressor

The Cycle Pump is a product I've been using while leading organized tours for several years now. With 13K plus miles of planned rides each year, I need a product that I know will work each time if a fellow rider (or myself!) has flat. It's quite compact, and fits in the tail section of my bike. We've used it numerous times on Pashnit Tours in the middle of nowhere, and yes, even pumped up car tires.

The CyclePump uses a powerful 12 volt electric motor and a high quality metal compressor assembly that's specially hardened for motorcycle applications. To run the CyclePump simply connect it to any 12 volt power source (like your bike's electrical accessory socket or the terminals of a battery). Attach the air hose to the tire, flip the switch, and begin filling your tire.

There are several options:
1. Cycle Pump Adventure Model: Price: $100

Size relative to the Hayabusa. Gives you an idea of how compact this thing is. I also carry the air gauge with me, handy item when filling up a tire & comes in its own little pouch. You can see it in the 2nd pic stuck in the tailsection of the Busa.

There are probably a lot of stories of when the Cycle Pump really came in handy. Here's Kevin' BMW Rockster plugging & filling his flat with the Cycle Pump when we were up at Bodie Ghost Town. This is just one particular example of helping out a fellow rider with this handy device.

Anyway, you get the idea. If you are the sort of rider like likes to get out there, nice to have some peace of mine whether you are the solo rider or out riding with your buds.
Click over the Buy Page and order one of the Cycle Pumps & I'll get it shipped out to you.

Always think you'll never need one of these, but I took these photos just few weeks ago while out riding.




Not exactly a finishing nail.

The mushroom plug that will save the day and allow the ride to continue on.




Using the included tool to insert the mushroom plug into the hole.

Using the Cycle Pump Air Compressor to fill the tire up. In this instance, we just attached the included alligator clips to the battery and we had power. On my Busa, I have an accessory outlet that I could just plug into.




Note the gauge. You just attach the line to the stem and watch the pressure go up on the gauge. There's also a bleed-off valve on the gauge that's handy.




Ta Da! All finished, our plug trimmed of and back on the road with the help of the Cycle Pump and the Stop-n-Go Tire Repair Kit.
