In regards to the previous posts about air compressors. Go ahead and get a cheap one. I paid about $20 for a Campbell-Hausfield that had lights and an air gauge on it (would have got the stripped down version for $13 but they were out of stock). Take the compressor guts out of the plastic case and you have a small compressor. You will need to power it off of 12 volts. Install a smoke lighter plug if you don't have one yet. You can then use it for radar detector, CD player, 12V blender, and many other things. I spent 4 days last week riding the Paiute Trail in south-central Utah. Everyone had been making fun of my compressor until one person got a flat. I think he may now own a compressor. I do carry a hand-pump that pumps on both in and out actions. It is strictly for emergency use now though. I'd rather ride than spend time pumping air. I also found out that I now do not hesitate to change air pressure for different conditions. In the pre-compressor days, I would ride the same pressures for all conditions. Not that it is so easy to add air, it makes the riding much easier. Guess I'm just lazy..... Mike Sonzini PS do watch out for your fingers once you have the compressor out of the case. Little fans that spin fast can sting if they contact your finger.

Hello to all. I picked up some bottles of Slime. Has any one used the stuff and seen it do what it says for them self ? I used another brand on a 79 Honda 750 about 21 years ago before most street bikes went tubeless. Maybe the new stuff is better. My A-15 is the first tube bike in that many years.
