Just put this stuff in your tires and forget about a pump...

Unless of course you have spoke wheels.
But I like the Slime pump. May get one.....Just in case.

Thanks guys for your opinions... I think I'll take the advice of the majority where I agree that the Savior is a bit on the overkill side when a slime would be just as good in its case in the saddlebag....
I think some of the RUB in me was showing....
I'm gonna go with the Slime then spend the savings on some shorty antennas and something chrome…
Thanks again...

We were running back to Florida last year when one of our Riders got a flat in the rear. We plugged it and I used the compressor to refill. Pumped it up no problem. Unfortunately the hole was large so the plug blew out again further south. I think we had to stop and plug about four times until we could get to a HD Dealer to get a new tire. The compressor is powerful. Don't bother with the fairing mounted one. Waste of money. $168.00 will buy you a Wally World compressor and a spare tire!
I would like a reccommendation on the best plug kit? No point in having a compressor if you can't plug the hole!

Stop n Go
This revolutionary new device easily installs mushroom shaped rubber plugs into all tubeless tires while staying on the wheel. The Plugging device 'drives' the plug into the hole with a turning of the hex wrench. The plug expands under pressure to fill the punctured area. A firm pull on the stem with your pliers seats the mushroom head on the inner wall allowing no air to escape. This technology insures maximum reliability while reducing your downtime in any situation.

If I rode around town all day from bar to bar, I would not worry about it either. (not saying you do) But some of the places I go you might not see another person for hours maybe days. So I do not call it worry, I call it getting my *** back on the road ASAP and doing so with the minimal amount of crap needed to get the job done.

For me you get what you pay for . I got a Savior250psi onboard tire compressor and its well worth it. I always had a cheap $10.00 compressor but it was for emergency use only If you want to maintain proper air pressure all the time you need a good compressor. Most riders wait tell their is no more air in the tire before they will do something about it. With this compressor its so easy to monitor tire pressure you will spot a problem before it becomes a serious one. and it amassing how much more miles you get out of a well maintained tire. I have over 250,mile on my 01 ultra and tire problem are a thing of the pass now.
