Hmmm. I had trouble getting proper HD air from the dealers. Plenty of hot air from the sales people only!!!!!!!!!!

wimbo this pump would it be rude to ask how much cause thats awsome who invented that
fukn unreal
does doing it this way still give you the horse power thats been talked about

cheers

I heard that next time ALDI has a sale on bike stuff the air will be cheaper than you can get it anywhere else and still conform to Australian standards!

Like most I have been using the air that is freely available for ever, but this mechanic I know, who inhales a lot of stuff for experimental purposes,
says I should stay away from the synthetic stuff.
And suggests the organic unadulterated organic air is the way to go.
It does get complex in this area but somehow I took it for granted.
Anyway certainly has got me thinking.

 

3 months after getting my new tyres fitted (Pirelli night dragons) and inflated with an atlas copco two stage compressor I decided I would check my pressures just out of curiosity. just as well I did cos the back tyre had lost 2psi and the front tyre had lost almost 4psi. atlas copco compressors are supposed to be up there with the best but now I am not so sure. I am starting to think there might be a bit more to this air quality/ compressor thing than meets the eye.

Missus must of found out how to duplicate Harley prime air,,,, she let drift in bed the other night and it sounded just like a Sportster starting up.

did you cop a whiff rider? what did it smell like? i know that's a personal question so you don't have to answer if you don't want to but I would like to know what Harley air smells like.

just like rose petals,,,,,,,

Looking over your shoulder, eh!?!

Hey beags, if you breath in too much H-D air and start farting, I believe it smells slightly oily with a hint of shit.

Rider your Lucky she didn't Pay extra For Screamin Eagle Air, would of woken up the dog!
I only use the Screamin eagle air, it's faster than the Harley air

My advice to the OP is to refer to his owners manual which states........

Tires are a critical safety component. Contact a Harley Davidson dealer for tire repair or replacement. Improper tire service can adversely affect stability and handling, which could result in Death or Serious Injury.

So by servicing I assume maintaining correct inflation. I'm sure H-D dealers would only ever use approved air. I only ever let an authorised technician work on my bike.

This is the only way I can avoid Death or Serious Injury.

Hope that helps.

I haven't been into Harleys long but I do know that most of the garages run V-twin compressors therefore one would assume these BIG V-Twins pump Harley air.
I did use air from an inline pump once and my seat hardened up and the bloody forks dropped 8 inches forcing my nuts into the tank.
Best stick with HD air

What oil should I use in my air?

 

Oh now this is getting ridiculous
Ya can't mix olive oil and harley air for fuck sake

Oh no it's so simple you use a baby crusher don't you blokes know anything it separates all the yuk I bits from the oil

Geeeezzzzzzz
