Inflatable Spare...
 

I recently purchased a 911 w/ inflatable spare. The air compressor is missing. IIRC from my earlier 911SC, the compressor was remarkably slow. As I have not searched out the appropriate 911 forums yet, I thought I would ask this knowledgeable group; what do you recommend I carry to inflate the spare? Any good portable compresspors come to mind? Can I carry a can of fix a flat?

Thanks,

I hear the Fix-A-Flat is a mess, but I would rather have it than nothing. You should be fine with a $20 12V inflator from Target.

I went to Sears and bought a portable compressor. Around $30. Use it on all the cars.

Fix-o-flat leaves a mess on the rim when you go to get the tire replaced.

I bought a $30 plastic air compressor that plugs into the car power socket. I thought that alone made it a pain, plus it is annoyingly slow. Then I bought a metal ViAir compressor that I keep with me at all times. It has battery terminal connectors, is small, weighs about 3 pounds and is amazingly fast. I use it at autocross / track events. Models and specs are here: http://www.viaircorp.com/compressors.html
This is a very impressive product.

Hey FTD...
 

That is what I am looking for, what model do you recommend and where did you get it? BTW, I see you ride a REX. I used to have a green one, but got hit by a car. Fortunately I was wearing the proper gear at the time...

I will let you know tomorrow which model I bought. I absolutely love it, and with two cars and a bike, plus its compact, lightweight portability it is soooo convenient. Very well made, too. Plus it came with different fitments so not limited to tires.

Sorry about the loss of your bike. I have never been in an accident on a bike, but I bet the memories linger.....

I bought the 90P model. Here is a photo that I took for someone to show them what I keep in my toolbag. Hopefully that shows its size, although it doesn't show off the compressor itself.
