I just bought this for motorcycle emergency flat situation. I was wondering if I can safely pump a street bicycle tire that requires max 120 psi?

Sure, but bicycle tires quickly inflate, so be mindful to turn the unit off when the Tire feels full!

According to the product info, "12 VOLT - 100 PSI Maximum Working Pressure, engine must be running during use." This seems to be saying it will inflate tires more quickly if the engine is running, slower if it is not.

This pump is designed to be used with adjustable air shocks. It does not put out the volume needed to pump up a car or motorcycle tire. It may pump up a bike tire, but it would take a while. You would be better off buying an actual bike pump...

No. This is for inflatables...not car or bicycle tires. The pump is high volume and would not be suitable for tires even if it had a fitting

I usually use 28-31 psi for any motorcycle tires. Not to hard, not to soft...gteat grip and they heat up well

Keep in mind some motorcycles have tubes. On a tubeless tire I would consider it with an experienced rider and no other options, although a physicsl plug is a much better option

Hi LBC! We recommend a small hand pump like this one, Topeak Peakini II Mini Pump or a foot/bicycle pump. Air compressors and gas stations can over inflate the tire pretty quickly but can be used in an emergency. We recommend a 25-30 psi which allows for some give when squeezed. It is very important you don't use the stroller if you have flat or low inflated tires as a pinch flat can occur. The trick to inflating the tire is to slightly hold the stem of the inner tube away from the rim while you connect the nozzle of the pump. Thank you for your question! Hi LBC!

Ms. Betty, I'm not sure what kind of tires you are looking to fill, but it wouldn't work on a car, motorcycle or bike tire. For those, I believe you'd need a compressor.

I suppose you could. I use it only for inflating soccer and basketballs. We have a separate bike tire pump.

The pressure gauge used to both read the pressure, and set the maximum pressure, has a max setting of 150psi. The trip needle would probably make it cut out at 148ish. So in theory it should be capable of this pressure.FYI the compressor is fairly slow. I used it on a tire with 20 psi, it took about 3 minutes to fill it to 35 psi.

I don't know. I gave it as a gift to my nephew. He loves it. Have you tried just a regular bicycle tire pump?

A standard bike pump will do - or just take it to a gas station with a pump Be careful though , it only needs 22psi (lots of tires are 30 plus) so don't overfill

I use a standard bike pump as well... When I had the same problem with a flat tyre, I took the tyre to my local bike shop where I got the right pump. It now lives with the pram. Hope this helps.

no.. I couldn't use my bike pump at all. I also went to the gas station and couldn't use it there either. i had to end up buying an automatic pump that had a long skinny valve to fit in it. Wasted my money, since it doesn't even work properly.. My son uses it to lay on and jump on it.:(

You can not use a bike pump or gas station pump. You need a pump that will blow up a air matress. You can purchase them at job lot for ten bucks or on amazon

Sure. Bike tires typically need a higher inflation than car tires but this unit has the capacity for these higher pressures.

I've used it to put 60psi (Schrader) in my hybrid bicycle tires. I don't have a motorcycle but it surely should work. I put 110psi in my road bike (presta).
