You can buy this system for $99.00. I've been told it works good.

I love the FOBO's on my bike. No problems at all. can check the tire pressure while still in the house. I didn't use the lock nut because it seemed more of a PIA than it was worth. Someone steals one, they can't use it unless I release it.

One downside is that it isn't integrated into Infotainment Center, but that wasn't a $900 downside to me. After 3 months, no complaints.


How does it alert you if there is a problem?? Since it is tied to the cell phone, does it prompt you on the infotainment system??

Sends an alert to the smart phone you use to monitor the tire pressure.

Fobo is probably better than any system Harley can come up with (probably with a price tag of $500.00). With Fobo, it's right on your phone and you don't have to mess around in your infotainment system... Fobo seems to be a nice clean design, $100, quite handy = no brainer. I'm getting it, period.

Fobo +10...I got it a while back and have been VERY happy with it. There are claims you should have metal valve stems but my rubber ones have been just fine. Next time there is a tire change I'll go metal.

Anyway...two thumbs up for Fobo...Awesome product, and less than $100 bucks on Amazon Prime.

I just bought this system after reading this the other day. It arrived today. Easy set up and pretty cool too! Came w/ an extra set of batteries for each monitor. Way easier than bending over and checking tire pressures all the time. Quick and easy check of the phone.

Have you found out if it will work through the info system?
Thanx,
