I’ve had to pick up non-running bikes a few times.
I bring along a bicycle pump and inflate the tires, but…
It’s like “pump! pump! pump!” over and over. Pretty exhausting.
When I try to use the air pump at a gas station, the nozzle basically points straight ahead,
making it really hard—or sometimes impossible—to get it onto a motorcycle tire. I’d like an easy way to pump air at home too.
So I went looking for some handy gadgets.
I spent several days patrolling and comparing prices and performance, and I found something that seemed reasonably priced
on Amazon. *I really spent a lot of time on this.
Plus there’s the risk of getting a dud…
This one comes in red or black. I went with black so dirt wouldn’t show.
Don’t you find that Amazon has tons of products that look the same but have different names?
Basically, products that make me go “huh?” tend to be Chinese-made with confusing descriptions and sketchy vibes, but they’re cheap. Amazon’s got dreams, I guess.
Here are the standout features of this product:
• Air gauge included
• Air chuck (90-degree angle) with lock (hands-free)
• Four unit options: PSI, BAR, KPA, KG/CM²
• Auto-stop at set pressure
• Attachments for other uses
• Lightweight—about the size of a charger
• Sound is pure compressor
Honestly, it’s pretty basic. At 3,360 yen, what do you expect?
All you really need is something that pumps air.
Auto-stop electric air compressor with digital display, car air pump, adjustable pressure, quiet operation, compact DC 12V electric air pump with LED light and Japanese instruction manual (Black) 3,360 yen. Even if it fails, I won’t regret it—but it’s actually really convenient.
BAL (Ohashi Sangyo) Socket, Battery Direct Connection Type 1761
When using it on a motorcycle, you’ll want:
• Small size
• Thin tip
• Insulated all the way to the tip
This one is 552 yen.
I think you’ll need this too.
Jump starter, 20,000 mAh large capacity, 12V car engine starter, portable charger, max 400A, LED emergency light, smartphone fast charging, mobile battery
You should definitely have a jump starter like this.
It charges your phone too, and it has a light.
It becomes a backup item if your battery ever dies.
It’s lightweight and compact, so carrying it when you go out gives you real peace of mind.
When the cold season hits and the battery starts acting up, it’s reassuring to have.
Cigarette lighter socket USB port, 12V car female adapter cord, USB cigarette socket converter, car charger, 30 cm
I bought this one too on a whim.
Jump starter, 20,000 mAh large capacity, 12V car engine starter, portable charger, max 400A, LED emergency light, smartphone fast charging, mobile battery
I thought combining them might work, but… it didn’t. Failed.
I really think you should have a jump starter.
An electric compressor doesn’t cost much either, so it’s great to keep in your car.
It pumps air into motorcycle tires too (and car tires, of course). When something goes wrong…
you think, “Oh, I wish I’d bought that back then.”
Hope this helps.
Ring Star R-34s Clear I found just the right case.
Keeping everything in a box makes storage and transport so much easier.
