Does anyone have experience with MotoPumps Air Shot 2.0? This seems like a good choice for a portable air compressor, but I would love to hear from some current users.
Thank you!

I bought this one, based on 6500 reviews averaging 4.5 starts out of 5. I have used it, and was happy with it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01J8Y90XG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Does anyone have a MotoPumps Air Shot 2.0?

Thank you. Do you store this on your R18? I'm looking for something to keep on the bike for emergency use.I bought this one, based on 6500 reviews averaging 4.5 starts out of 5.

Oh no! It's my garage pump... It's not huge, but I wouldn't want to take up that much luggage space on the bike.Thank you. Do you store this on your R18? I'm looking for something to keep on the bike for emergency use.
Thank you for your reply. The Airmoto is another one I’m considering. Looks like it’s really well made. I’m still on the fence with whether or not to go with a battery powered unit.Haven't used the MotoPumps Air Shot yet, I often carry an AirMoto unit, great readout for setting the pressure accurately. I haven't had to use it for a flat yet.

Sometimes I throw in a mini bicycle floor pump, it's just handy and no dependencies. Got to hold it pretty good when using since it's a small base and handle, but it's pretty good quality.

Thank you, Bob. I was not familiar with this compressor. Seems like a solid, tried and true model. It’s now on my shortlist of models I’m considering.cycle pumps
These were the "standard" for years as any other options near this small were mostly junk. Now there are many options such as those shared above, but still a good alternative when comparing.
I would not be concerned with either as a power source and more on the quality of the pump itself. "Good" pumps will work much more efficiently so the needed energy to work is less and the time it needs is much less to actually produce the desired pressure so a "win-win". If I have to recharge a self contained battery pack or plug the pump into an external battery pack or the bike is secondary to me wanting a good pump.Any other touring riders have recommendations? What are your thoughts on using the 12V power from the bike vs a battery powered unit?
I have this AIRMOTO one and use it often on everything from bicycles, basketballs, to motorcycles. It works great.Haven't used the MotoPumps Air Shot yet, I often carry an AirMoto unit, great readout for setting the pressure accurately. I haven't had to use it for a flat yet.

I ran it once or twice in the garage to make sure it works. And it does! It gets warm/hot while using it but that was to be expected.Thank you. I have the Nealey kit. How do you like the compressor? Any information you can share on your experiences with it is appreciated.
