The HD pump is a good item to have, if your on the road and the plastic line breaks or comes loose from the fitting. It stores neatly in the saddle bags. I had to repair my air line so I am speaking from experience.Check your HD owners manual for proper air pressure.

Go figure!

DITTO, This is almost humorous.

Well yes and no. Yes what you say is and could be humorous if you paid that much money. But no, it is not humorous when the same pump can be had for $31. The Progressive pumps are the same pump only painted silver. The one I got off eBay works perfectly. And please don't tell me that Harley actually makes their own pumps. I don't know for certain, but the Harley pump is probably made by Progressive.

Check it out here. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Air-S...#ht_2424wt_841

Hey, it's your money. I save $$$$ and it is delivered right to my door. Now is that humorous?
