Tire Air Pressure Gauge

[Bob Denman]

I like this one; Joe's Racing Tire Gauge on Amazon at $21.57 Goes to 60psi and has a hose so it is easy to get into tight spaces like the rear tire. Also has 2 different head attachments. :thumbup:

Thanks for this info! :clap: :thumbup:
If it makes it easier to get to the rear tire's valve: :2thumbs:

I'm sold on the FOBO System. Check pressure before and after each ride. Now someone needs to come up with an electronic dipstick for the Spyder

I am also a bicyclist and have been using a Topeak Joe Blow Pro for years. It works fine on the Spyder front wheels but for the rear wheel I add a Harley valve extension http://www.harley-davidson.com/store/valve-stem-extension because the pump chuck won't clear the rear sprocket.

I refuse to let getting down on my knees to check pressure and/or add air (with the stem between 4 and 5 o'clock viewed from the left side of the Spyder) slow me down. My analog tire gauge with right angle chuck clears the standard valve stem so I only need the extension when adding air. BTW, if one uses a Harley portable compressor it comes with the flexible extension.

I use this one as well. Works great on the rear tire.

+100!

Also while riding if you have a tire going flat!...... You get a warning about it so you don't lose control!

Garmin makes a tire pressure sensor. I dont think it works with the 660 I have on my ST LTD. It says its compatible with the 390LM or 590LM
You would have thunk that Garmin would have made our units compatible with these.

Oh never mind, the Garmin sells for 70 apiece and the battery only last a year. you would need 3 for the spyder. The FOBO lasts twice as long.

I pickup a 0-20 psi guage at tractor supply. Great for the pointy end tyres. I run 16 psi N2, thus just fine.:cheers:

Update

I picked up one of these from jthornton, who sent it right out, and took his suggestion on a bicycle pump:

I have never actually felt secure that my momentary pressure check with the digital gauge was actually accurate or trusted that the pressure was correct until today. I also loved the way it attaches and removes, making it far easier to fill the rear tire as well

I spent about $100 in total, but it was well worth the cost! Thank you to everybody for their suggestions.

Our new 2015 rt s did not come with a tire guage. Is this a mistake or is BRP expanding their profit.

So for $75.00 bucks; this is the right tool for the job...:2thumbs:
Question: How accurate is the gauge? :shocked:

bob how accurate is the gauge is not the question even using that contraption you cant Guarantee both tires will be the same there is a lot of room for error meaning the person behind the tool if you take a half a second more to remove from tire then the other your all done psi will be different the key is to check it every ride that is part of the check list you should do and decent gauge will work you will get use to it and know where you like your tires the best

this one will do fine

You won't be sorry . . . and the real beauty of the dual fill is that you know both front tires are at the exact same pressure! If you do need to add air, you only pump once for both tires! Very simple. I've been using mine for well over a year and couldn't be happier with it.

:shocked: My 2014 didn't have one either... I saved the one from my 2010! :thumbup:

 

[finless]

I would not use that BRP gauge on a kids blowup toy! It is not accurate which is probably why BRP stopped supplying it.

That is what I have... Love it!

Mine has always seemed to track with my "better" gauges...
And it's consistent! :thumbup:

Pretty neat but a bit over budget at $150 plus you need a cloud to follow you around. I have something too but it is over budget as well.

Hi JT,
What is the difference between your $60 system & $75 system for front tire air pressure? $60 does not have a gauge & the $75 has a gauge?

Hi all,
I found JT's air filter system designed & built with high quality.
