    This was sent via my e-mail. Has any one got/used one? When your riding alone in the boonies and that stray road nail bites your tire.

    The only downside I can see is it requires a separate 12V power supply.

    Out in the boonies you would rely on the motorcycle battery as a power source.

    I wonder if it would run on a 14.4 NiCad pod style battery and how long.

    Was also thinking, you must keep engine running while using it or it will kill the battery creating another problem?

    I keep a slime air pump with the trike 'never had to use it. Also I have a plug kit with co2 cartridges only used it once years ago on my Vtx works great 👍 If you want all the major power battery companies sold at homedepot have one simmalr to the dragon and well made not some 20 dollar toy !📞📞

    When you get a puncture, do ya see orange stuff coming out?
    Had a customer use tire flat goo, when changing tire, what a mess , had to hose off wheel ect. Then again if it's a life saver, I guess it's worth the mess.

    I carry a Slime compressor, plug kit and a truck tire size can of Fix-a-Flat. Have used the Fix-a-Flat a couple of times in other peoples tires but so far I have been lucky and not in my own tire.

    Well, thats just the chance you take. Good to have some kind of kit to make a quick fix to get you back into the world. Hopefully my cell phone will work so I can call AAA.

    If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

    AAA Is sketchy at best......
    A short while ago i was in my wife's car picking up my granddaughter at school, and the cars battery was dead, So what the hey, I'll call AAA for the first time in 30+ years, And its poring rain.. They tell me it will be at least 2 hours before they can get to us...So i flagged down a school custodian and he gave me a boost ...

    I have used AAA a number of times over the years
    I have had a few bad experiences like 1 time when I waited for 4 hours
    But most of the time I have had good experiences

    NY has help trucks. Don't know if it's nation wide
    State farm sponsors the program. There response is with in a hour, providing there in the area. The program is in jeopardy if State Farm pulls out.
    The downside is they only patrol state roads.

    Only two times i had to be towed when my Trike [Spyder] left me stranded on the road. And both times i was lucky that one of my Son's was available to pick me up with my trailer...
