Motorcycle Blow Dryers/ Pet dryers...
« on: November 17, 2022, 01:58:12 PM »
Looking for things to put on my Christmas list.
Has anyone used / got one of these blowing things? Are they both the same?
Any recommendations as they all look the same?
Thanks

My biker mates all swear by them.

As 90% of my biker mates ride GSs, it's no surprise that they use these: www.nippynormans.com/search?q=dryer

…if you have to look for stuff then you don’t really need it!  I usually just get my normal shopping, wrapped up … shower gel (wrapped) ..jar of pickle (wrapped)… deodorant (wrapped)…etc

Chatting in the pub at lunchtime with my brother who has a well insulated detached single garage with around 10 old  bicycles in storage. He uses a small tube type wardrobe bar heater that is thermostatically controlled - it keeps out condensation plus it's very low powered less than 100w.

I bought this last year and love it. Dries a bike very quickly and also blows water out of every hard to reach areas. It's not like a hair dryer! It really blows hard. Ooh err...
