So you've bought the best motorcycle tires for your ride and think that you're set to go. Not so fast. Choosing the right tire is only half the battle. Proper tire inflation is crucial to safe riding. Most of us turn to the tried-and-true manual tire gauge - either of the analog or digital variety.
However, if kneeling down and testing tire pressure is abhorrent to you, now you have a choice. TireGard's Wireless Motorcycle Tire Pressure Monitor System may be for you. The Trike model is designed for those of you who ride on three wheels. There is also a two-wheel monitoring model. The unit is a wireless tire pressure tool that monitors tire pressure and temperature in real time. The LCD display gives a visual reference of these tire conditions. The senders and the monitor all require batteries which are monitored for low battery conditions.
I love technology as much as the next guy, but this seems like overkill to me. I monitor my tires the old-fashioned way -- by hand, with a gauge. At the same time, I look at the things that this device will not monitor like tread depth and sidewall condition. However, if that is not your thing, this tool will certainly make your life easier.
