Default Savior Onboard Tire Compressor

I've been contemplating getting one for the convenience and peace of mind...

Does anyone out there have one and feel it's worth it? $198.50 US bucks right from Savoir...

Thanks

But it looks like you have to drill a hole in the inner fairing for installation. I'm not crazy about that, and with all the accessories packed up the kit is a big as the Slime compressor in the previous post. Think I'd go with the Slime unit. Just my $.02

+1 on the SLIME unit... I paid under $20 at wally-world, large readable dial guage (still ust a regular guage to check) and it has the valve clamp, so once it's hooked on, you don't have to hold it

I just picked up a 250psi mini compressor from Harbor Freight that weighs in at 1lb.
Paid $5.99....If it works a few times, it's paid for itself. I will try it out today to see if it works!!!!!

That is very cool. You might use it more to check your tires if you only had to get a hose out. I carry the small Slime one pictured, and use a home compresser to check and fill tires.
