Motorcycle TPMS Tire Pressure Monitor System – What and Why

MOTORCYCLE TPMS TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM – WHAT AND WHY

It’s Simple. We love riding motorcycles.;

While we don’t talk about or say the word Safety very often, our constant efforts towards maintenance, carefully selection of gear, and focused attention to riding conditions are done so that we can and do have a safe ride. Tire pressure and tire temperature are just as important to tire condition as thread. We all need a reliable TPMS / Tire Pressure Monitoring System.

None of us would think about riding on worn, damaged tires with bare fiber threads showing through the rubber. The potential for a flat and loss of control would be too high and our better judgement takes over, so we replace that old tire with a new one. Those small patches of contact between the rubber and the road are critical to our riding Safety. How can we improve upon and help preserve that Safety? Installing a new Orange Electronics M203 Series TPMS Tire Pressure Monitoring System. Our system alerts you to Tire Pressure and Tire Temperature changes Below and Above your programmable “Safe Zones”.The FIM just announced on February 6th, 2016 that 
Motorcycle TPMS would be required/mandated equipment on every bike competing in MotoGP. They will only use “In-Tire” sensors – there is a reason for this.

TPMS Continuous Critical Tire Pressure Readout

The US Congress legislated the THREAD ACT of 2005 into law mandating that every car/truck under 10,000 lbs sold in the US after January 1st 2007 be equipped from the factory with TPMS. There are no exceptions and every car/truck sold since then has used “in-tire” sensors in their monitoring systems. Again, there is a reason for this. Why all this attention to tire pressure? The infamous and devastating 1999/2000 recall of Firestone Tires (over 100 lives were lost) was found to have been caused by Under-inflation. Poor handling and excessive temperatures happen when tires are under-inflated.

Combine load, speed, and miles with heat and the tires will fail. The cause and affect was so well documented that the US Congress quickly enacted the TREAD ACT still enforced today.



RRR is the US Authorized Dealer for Orange-Electronic Motorcycle Tire Pressure Tire Temperature Monitoring Systems. Ours sensors/senders go inside the tire just like every car / truck sold does it today. 

TPMS Warning! Loss Of Pressure

We bring you a Safe, Reliable, and Durable TPM System that accurately measures Tire Pressure and Temperature. None of the Automobile Manufacturers use those small, screw-on valve-stem sensors/senders – Why should you? Look at our TPMSystem Benefits and you’ll see why we use, sell, and stand behind them.

The M203 TPMS Display is easily installed on your dash, fairing, handlebar, brake reservoir, and many other convenient locations. The sensors replace your valve stems and go inside your rim like the millions installed on today’s automobiles. This keeps the sensor inside and protected from the elements plus gives it the unique ability to Monitor and Warn you should either Pressure or Temperature threaten your Front or Rear Tires. These are “Tubeless Only” and will not work if your bike uses an inner tube.

The Modern, Manual Motorcycle Clutch does a lot more than the textbook definition of this word Clutch suggest.
