 Blaster? it sure isMar 05, 2008
By Robert W. Henze
"H57"
I had buyers remorse after placing the order. An after thought about the horsepower made me skeptical. Their big one is 8 hp then their best seller is 4 hp this one is only 1.3. To my surprise it was awesome. I can't imagine using a 4 hp on my bike. It works great. Filtered & heated air it is well worth the money!

AIr Force Blaster Sidekick Compact - Great ProductJun 11, 2009
By M. Signorile
"Rider"
Purchased this dryer thinking that it would help a little with the drying time on my bike - this product is great - it cut my wash and dry time in half - I was able to get the water out of the fins on my engine heads as well as all the little spots I had difficulty getting to with a cloth. Even blew the dust off the garage floor prior to rolling the bike back in. Highly recommend this for the biker that has one or two bikes and likes to keep them clean. You will need an extention cord as the cord on the unit is aprox 18". Great product - great buy!

 lotta hot airApr 16, 2009
By Dwayne L. Metcalf
This is a whole lotta product in a small package. I had been considering some type of dryer to help with cleaning and drying my motorcycle, and when I found a very attractive price on Amazon.com I decided to try it. I'm glad that I did as this Metro Vac SK-1 is a great tool. It lives up to manufacturers claims and I can't imagine needing anything bigger.

Great Vac!Jun 11, 2009
By B. Seay
I would normally resist washing my Sportster (typically use Dri-Wash products) because of the pain that comes with removing water spots, but the Metro Vaccum makes drying anything a breeze! Takes me about 5 minutes to completely dry my bike and the most important thing... "NO STREAKS or WATER SPOTS!" Needless to say, I love this compact portable motorcycle dryer!!!

Metro Vacuum SK-1 Air Force Blaster Sidekick Compact & Portable Motorcycle DryerApr 01, 2009
By Robert L. Virgo
I first researched and read all the reviews concerning the Metro Vacuum SK-1 Air Force Blaster Sidekick Portable Motorcycle Dryer. At first I was somewhat skeptical before purchasing this unit. Previously I was using my BIG bulky leaf blower to remove the water and debris from my bike. I wasn't always able to get underneath my bike with my leaf blower or those other hard to get to areas. Now with the Metro Vacuum's size, I'm now able to hit those tight areas I wasn't able to get to before. Also this little unit packs a punch, it has more power then my big made in China leaf blower. The little Metro pumps out 18,000 ft/min of warm, filtered air. The quality of this unit is top shelf, and it's made right here in the USA! What's important to me and high on my list is this. It's a quality unit, it does the job it's advertised to do and if it keeps an American worker employed here in the USA, then that's good enough for me! TIP: (Use your own discretion on this one.) For me, it works equally well when removing the crud from my PC's keyboard!
