Hi,
First, I would like to thank all of you for helping me with my question about the rear luggage rack on my 2009 GTS 250, the ties work great.
There are so many products on (tire inflation) on the market, that it is hard to pick. I want to feel safe and carry something that will ease my mind.

I ordered a Stop & GO pocket plug kit with the insertion gun and mushroom plugs that a frend of mind has, I used it on a sample and it works great, so thats done.

Now for inflation, I have a Mini Versair Dual Action Pump by PlanetBike that is real small. This pump works super great but IT TAKES TIMEEE TO PUMP BY HAND, know what i mean.
The Stop & Go Plug Kit and the Mini Versair Dual Action Pump fit under my GTS seat with no problem at all.

I would like to carry something that will pump up a tire faster then the hand pump, just in case I need to. Are the Co2 inflators safe to carry under my seat, being that it gets real under the seat, I'm afraid that the Co2 will blow up, will it.
HAVE any of you guys and gals ever hear of the Second Wind MTB Combination. It's a Combo Inflator, Co2 speed combined with hand pump security. Designed for Scooter Tires . Ideal inflator for high volume/low
pressure application. 2 pumps. Please help, I don't know about threaded or un threaded Co2 cannisters. Some have Co2's that you screw up with a tube and it gets cold to the touch. helpppppp . Then there is the Cycle Pump that cost $100 the 12 volt one. Is this the BEST one to carry with me and is it easy to hook up, do I just un screw the cover on my GTS where the battery is and just clip it on the terminals, just like a car , with the motor running?????? Going crazy on what should I buy, I don't know about that slime thing. I don't want things blowing up under me, I'm in Florida with Temps of 92 -96 and you can imagine what it is under the GTS's seat.

THANK YOU ALL
DONNA

i carry a can of tyre repair/inflator - i shove it in behind the left legshield knee-pad, it pumps up the tyre and fills it with foam to plug the hole - used it last month when i had a nail in the rear tyre, took about 5 mins and the tyre is good, no need for a plug !! i also keep a tiny bottle (50ml) of spare petrol in there too, saves me pushing the bike to the petrol station !!
