I found this too whilst I was searchign for "joypumps"

I found that this cheaper mtoorcycle siphoning product was workable and managed to fashion a device myself.

I'm off now to play with my joypump.
Voted most likely to be found dead in park bushes following an act of autoerotic asphyxiation.

"That was a tad embarrassing -- I live in a flat in a converted house and there was a package waiting for me all day with 'JOYPUMP.CO.UK' emblazoned on it for all my neighbours to see." :wink:

The ad states "This Joypump is designed only for Royal Enfield Bullet Meteor BSA and Sunbeam. please ask if you want one for you bike."

Erm so why a piccy of it being used on a suzuki then? Its just a syphon pump, I'm sure Lidl's do/will have one on special offer soon. Failing that go look at M&P who do a similar one for 3 quid......Joy Pump indeed.....

I asked him why the Royal Enfield only designated title and he said it was that eBay would not let him post under a general banner but had to specify bike type. Seems weird to me.



Lidls indeed!!!!!!

This one is a syphon and doesn't pump 'uphill' very well!!!

All I can say is, I wish I had something like that when my bike ran out of petrol on the M6 motorway a good few years back :!: :lol:

Your probably right Chris (LSM) about this guy missing a trick :!:
IMO it would be a good idea if a 'Joypump' was included in the standard tool kit :!: :D and not only with a Firestorm :!:
