Default One of my favorite mods, tire pressure monitor

This is one of the best things I did to my 18 RK, a wireless tire pressure monitoring system. It monitors pressure and temperature for both tires, individually. It has the ability to set pressure and temperature alarms (audible and visual). It also alarms on a "rapid pressure loss" too. It virtually eliminates needless pressure checks. My experience, by the time you get your pressure gauge on the schraeder valve square you've already lost enough air that you need to add some. The best thing... 60 some bucks for the whole system on Amazon.

we did a Polar Bear ride today, sunny, dry and COLD..was 29 and frost on the roads at our scheduled kickstands up departure, so waited a couple hours for it toward up to low 30's..brrr, heated gloves and bundled up so no big deal tho..bike did not start easy this morning after not being ridden for a few weeks, battery tender did it's job but took a blip or two of the throttle to fire up after a few attempts..riding is a good way to start a the new year!
