Finally massive thanks to Colin Cairns for the load of the rechargable air pump to try it out, Jeb Sterry for flagposting potential BMW/CANBUS problems, and Mic McMullen and Kevin McMillan for pitching in with ideas.

Awesome comparison video. That AirMan pump looks the exact same as the Harley-Davidson pump. Guessing Harley just rebranded it. But the AirMan branded pump is a lot cheaper than the Harley branded one I’ll bet. I recently ordered the Rocky Creek V2 pump. Looking forward to having something compact on board. One thing I think you forgot to mention about the V2 pump is that it has a little nipple that you can stick a pressure gauge to which is really nice. That way you can use your own accurate tire gauge as opposed to the built in gauges that other pumps have which probably aren’t very accurate.

Thanks Brett, Didnt know that Harley was using the Airman, thats interesting. Yep, your right about the gauge connection on the V2 👍

Great video, I have actually been looking at a compressor for the garage. No hope of getting one on the MT-01 though.

Great video there! I’m using a rocky creek V1. Fits under my seat of the 850GS and saved me when green landing in wales last year. Had a severely buckled front rim after that trip too and the compressor got plenty of work topping that tyre up all the way home.

Thank you Debo. It'd always great when a piece of kit gets you out a pickle like that. Gives you real confidence in it 👍

Airman for me, as you know I do like to find the nails! When you get a flat on the coast road between Applecross and Sheildaig trust me you want an Airman tour in your topbox 😂

Ha ha, aye, you've been a magnet to them 🤣. I've been really impressed with it.
