Hi everyone.Still being January here in the Northeast this question might seem a little premature,but I like to be prepared.Does anyone have any experience in motorcycle travel with thir cpap gear.I'm toying with the idea of second machine for this if the price is right. Any info as to what machine would fit into the limited space and the vibrations of said traveling would be greatly appreciated.Sleep time would be more than likely be under a roof,not in a tent.Thanks a bunch

I hauled my old Sullivan machine thousands of miles.
Here's what I learned in my travel.
1. Take a long extension cord and a three into two adapter for plugin.
2. Get some small gold hooks that are threaded for screwing into the ceiling in your motel. Hang a 3' bungee cord off the hook and you have a place to hang you hose over your head (if the room has no head board, and most don't)
3. Make sure you have extra nasal pillows (if you use them).
4. I always carried my CPAP in a saddle bag and never had any problems with the machine.
5. Enjoy your trip and don't sweat the CPAP too much.
Hope that helps
