Just ordered this off
!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
Smallest comprehensive puncture repair kit I’ve yet found for
motorcycles, all I need to add is a mini spritzer bottle full of soapy water to help find leaks. I have a pair of pliers to pull out foreign objects in my normal toolkit. Having suffered SIX punctures over the past two years on the FJR, I’m fed up with being stranded and at the mercy of roadside assistance.

Do motorcycles have cigarette lighters? I guess it has the alligator clamps too to connect directly to the battery?

Some do. You could add one if you wanted, or like you said just connect direct to battery.

Some have 12v lighter sockets, most have trickle charger pigtails directly connected to the battery. Looks like this kit comes with several ways to get power - covering as many bases as they can.
However, the fuse built into a trickle charger harness is like 7.5a. I’m curious how many amps that little motor pulls....

All my bikes have an SAE connector for trickle chargers, which this can hook into.

I actually looked into this, the compressor only draws about 4-5 amps.

Oh, nice.
Can’t tell you how many time I have heard of
people trying to
jump a dead bike using those pigtails. They turn the key, and it’s all good. Ignition? Check. L
ights? Check. F
uel pump? Check.
... Then
they try to start it and wonder what happened.

Great kit, great price.
That little compressor is far more useful than using co2 cartridges.

One more reason to only ride bikes with tubes. As an added bonus, they usually only come with carburetors!

All motorcycles come with cigarette lighters, even ones without batteries!
