Default HD Over-Priced Shock Pump!

Man this Works Great!
..use to use the Bro's Compressor tweakin it down
(might not be a good idea) anyways, this small little Shock Pumps Rocks!!!
...got fair deal on a new one off e-bay HD-part#54630-03B this is going 2B great on Road-Trip.
Couple Question's for those who may have one:
I see presure gauage goes to 60psi think you could use it in a pinch for pumping a Tire up?
Have my shocks set @ 20#psi 6'2"@250#but,sometimes pull a trailer whats the Limit psi on the rear shocks "RoadKing"
any problems with them?
~Thanks~

You can pump a tire with it, but it is real slow!

According to my trusty service manual, "do not pressurize system in excess of 50 psi for FLHRS, FLHX models and 35 psi for all others". Recommended pressure for your bike with a solo rider 200-250 lbs is 5-15 psi. 20 psi should be good if loaded and pulling a trailer.

Filling a tire with this pump is going to take a very long time.

My son gave me one for X-Mas. It puts out one tiny little puff with each stroke. Great for making little adjustment on a small system like the air shocks. I cannot imagine trying to pump up even a bicycle tire.

Price is what it is. try getting a Bugatti, that new over $2,000,000 one.

Also will work great for those who have an air ride seat (police solo seat)with an air cylinder. Takes just a few strokes to pump up that system too.
