Has anyone ever packed one on a bike trip? Did it stand up to the vibration? Did it still work when you got home?

Mine went the 5700 miles with me on my bike to Sturgis and beyond last year. It has traveled with me on buisness trips to Europe and Korea. It's a Puritan Bennet,and it's very compact and the averts say its designed with business folks in mind. Literally fits in my briefcase! Take it along and get some good sleep! Ride Safe

RE: CPAP machines

Same here, I have a resmed and took it in my tour pack last month 4500 miles from Texas to Glacier National Park and back. It even made it through a slight problem when my buddy slammed into me from behind while I was stopped waiting for traffic to clear. He knocked my new 07 Ultra out from under me and laid her on her right side.

I have also carried it in our bushtec trailer on trips, I would not be able to function without mine.

RE: CPAP machines

It should be fine. I have a Remstar and haven't had any problems. I took it to Cape Cod last year and I always have it bouncing around in the 5th wheel when I go camping. A couple of guys that I work with have had the operation to get away from the CPAP and they said it was one week of hell afterward, but are glad that they did it and wouldn't look back. I still got get lasik eye surgery first though[

RE: CPAP machines

I had the surgery. It improved my apnea from severe, to really bad. I will take what I can get.

Yes. Mine came with a padded bag and I carried it to the last rally I went to in my trailer with no problems. The only cautions I got was not to check it as baggage on a plane and to be sure the humidifier tank was empty before transporting it.

Whats a CRAP machine?[&:]

Just wondering what it's like to inject something moronic into a serious thread and not have anybody think it's funny? [:'(]

RE: CPAP machines

I hauled mine 1700 miles on a road trip to Big Bend National Park. It is like the American Express card. I will not leave home without it. If I can't take it I'm not going. I love and hate that thing. Anybody that has one knows what I am talking about. T.
