Will the on-board compressor air up tires? Just curious if anyone has tried.

Once again, I'm sure that someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Ther is no outlet as such, the valve under the seat is for preload.

The compressor only functions to adjust suspension when the Spyder is moving, kind of makes it hard to catch the valve as it's spinning around.

When making adjustments with the rocker switch to make a firmer ride the compressor will run and that's while the bike is standing still. If you had a schrader connection on a hose that you could clip to that air valve under the seat, I would imagine it will put out air.

This is along the lines of what I was thinking... I'm not necessarily interested in a full tire inflation, but airing up a low tire or making minor pressure adjustments without hauling another piece of gear other than some coiled hose would be nice if it can be done.

This is certainly not as convenient as your thinking, but we have used it and it has the smallest footprint that we found http://www.slime.com/product/111/Power-Sport-Tire-Inflator-%28%2340001%29.html

Ordered another one for our RT-S....:thumbup:
