Motorcycle TPMS (M202)

[thebigone]

Hi All,
I was wondering if any one on the site has fitted any of the "orange" TPMS, they look to be new on the market for the bike,

Thanks Chris

That's the same as the TP Checker one I reviewed here

So far, it's been great, shows the pressure/temp quickly as soon as power is applied - maybe between 3-10 seconds. A little slower when it's cold.

The stems could be about a 1/4 inch longer but they will fit anyway. I spoke to them and they are considering a future change to increase the stem length to handle more bikes' wheels.

Hi, thanks Mellow, that was very fast reply. I to have a gear indicator, I see from your pic that you have yours on the out side of the display's, I have placed mine on the inside, "Q" do you think the TPMS would also fit under the glass?? I see that the unit has two buttons, I was thinking that maybe two small holes in the glass over the buttons in order to set them.

I would welcome your opinion

regards chris

I didn't use the orange TPMS, but Ive used the TIRE SAFEGUARD, just ordered a second unit due to loss of first one. This unit have a bigger screen then the orange and the sensors are perfect for the ST valve stems.
there IS A GRAPHIC DISPLAY OF A BIKE, SHOWING READOUTS FOR FRONT OR REAR TIRES AS INDICATED ON THE DISPLAY.
only DOWNSIDE COMPARED TO THE ORANGE IS THAT IT HAVE TO BE RECHARGED AT HOME, AS THERE IS NO CONNECTION TO THE BIKES BATTERY.

I don't believe there's enough room inside the cluster. I also wouldn't put a hole in it for the two buttons as that would possibly expose water to the other electronics. Plus, if you didn't like it or sold the bike and the next owner didn't want it, it would be more involved than just un-sticking it from the clear plastic of the cluster.
