I've had an inexpensive, Walmart-type tire inflator, one with the 12 foot, 12 volt accessory wires and hookup.
It works on my motorcycles, albeit slowly. Part of my issue with it is the fairly short power cord - I have to pull my m/c relatively close to my car to be able to reach the tires. Just not comfortable being close, and it's not what I would call a convenient affair.
I have no electrical outlets anywhere near to my storage building, where my bike is housed, so a 110 unit is not practical. And due to the very short power cord on the little 12 volt unit I have forces me to move my bike outside and next to the car - again, a pain.
So, I guess my first question is - are there "extension cords" available to provide a lot longer "reach" from car to storage building? If not, is there a portable compressor available with a long power cord somewhere? A 60 foot stretch would be good.
Next; Is there a self-contained inflator available, one that may be rechargeable, that would allow me to adjust inflation while the bike is in the storage building?
Any information or suggestions would be helpful - thanks in advance.
