Would you recommend these as a motorcycle "saddlebag item" so that if you need to add air at a typical gas station, you can get the air chuck on?

That can work, I use it for the same purpose on a jeep, the valve is difficult to get to, this makes it easier. Just remove it when is not needed.

I rode motorcycles for years and owned a dealership. I'd recommend the short "L" shaped piece for good air chuck access.. You will want to have the wheel re-balanced, because the valve extension probably weighs an ounce or more - far too much weight, and that would shake the bike at mid- to high speeds unless you rebalance.BV
1305315
Yes but need to be removed after use due to weight. They only weigh grams but could be enough to effect balance.
1305316
Yes. I would not leave them installed but remove them after filling your tires and keep them handy for your trips to an air pump.

Yes I have one in my road king saddlebag just add a extra pound or two of air because u will lose some air taking the item off.

no.....this is more of a slow steady air source which works great for tires. For what you want I'd look at something like this... The Source S-KIT10 High Performace Portable Air System

They have small vent slots so a little air comes in but they are great with my contacts on my motorcycle! I hope this helps!

I haven't ridden with them. If you pad the eye cups it could work. My main concern would be the venting. It may allow too much airflow to be a good solution at speed.

I am using these on a harley road king. I have them set up with a small compressor and also set up to use a hand pump if need to.

they are air filledI have a question can you really have a flat tire on an air compressor
991563
I would not use them for that. You need something that air will actively be pushed thru.

Yes, but of course you will have to add some air to them initially. They have the same type valve as a mountain bike tire.

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

you'll want to use an aircompressor, you can find on at a gas station or tire center. Good chance one of your handyman neighbors has one.

Check for an Application specific part on the Monroe website. If you are using these to load level I would advise against it. You need to find an air bag setup for that.

I can't say for sure since I don't have a friend with a K-bike to test my bags on, but in general I don't see why not. The question would be how upswept, if at all, your' bike's exhaust system is.

Yes but capacity becomes an issue. I piped 2small propane tanks togeather and use them as auxiliary air storage when I'm using a lot of air

Personally I did not think much of this item and I eventually returned it. I was only using for maintaining the air pressure for my car and bikes. The compressor would run out of air much faster than blow up a single tire, so this did not work for me. Possibly if you have a different use in mind it will work for you.

No. We already had an air compressor which we used to pump it up. I wouldn't necessarily recommend trying to blow it up yourself unless you are extremely patient. It can be done (I did it part way once), but took a while. A bike pump would probably work also.

Yes, you can do that. We have a lot of motorcycle customers that use them as spare gas containers when traveling long distances and want to carry extra fuel.

Yes you can, I have same tube on my bike. And it is more trouble then it is worth, tires are hard to fill up. I hear people say all the time, fill it up at the gas station, buy a bike pump. I've tried, and I already have a pump. Neither work, I have to take it to walmart cause they have HIGH COMPRESSION air, or a bike shop. The first time I filled it up with air was easy, now it's a headache
