I also carry one of these. After loaning a Slime pump I had to a fellow at a hotel near the Bear Tooth pass and it burned up, I found and purchased the Cycle Pump. These will not let you down.

Be more concerned about someone running a RED LIGHT and make road kill out of you.

I have Ride-On balancer / puncture repair in my tires, but have used the CO2 canisters (5 to get me to a gas station) as well as a tire pump (works, but tiring) in the past.

As for the Stop & Go kits, check the plugs regularly to make sure the lubricant hasn't dried into a nasty powder.

Ride On works but it leaves sludge on the inside of the wheel , if any sludge is on the wheel's bead the new tire will leak at those places I do my tires and have to really clean the wheel good when changing tires when using ride on ..

I was considering slime on the inside but I would really rather not put a bunch of crap in there. It works great on my dirt bike, but that has a tube to contain it.

My stop and go should be here tomorrow. I'll check the connections before I load it in the bike. I did pick up a nice repair kit from Moto Gear in Albany. . Good people.

Mike @ Moto Gear mentioned the fuse for the tender possibly being too small for the amperage draw of the stop and go. Has anybody had an issue with this? He rides and R1 so maybe it's just on his bike. IDK

Another vote for the Stop n' Go kit. Have used it on 2 bikes and 1 golf cart we were doing security at. Nice and small and really seems to last a long time.

Stop & Go says the pump draws 6A and the fuse on the tender should be 10A. Plenty of room.

Check out this rechargeable pump by Fantik! I bought one off of Amazon last week and I used it to fill my truck tires. It is small, portable, and comes with adapters for bike tires, inflatables, etc.. It was only like $80 too.
