Smartire ... anybody use it?

[Groo]

Rogue,

If you find one, let me know... that's the best I could find so far... Oooh... somebody should get Smartire to be a sponsor for WFO/NFO in July and give some of these puppies away as door prizes!!!

Where'd you mount the readout Toe?

It's sitting atop the clutch reservoir, on a little rubber wedge that was once a door stop, angled up to make reading easier.

Here's an alternative mounting location:

This keeps any alert nearer your line of sight, and allows convenient power cable routing down either windscreen track.

Cheers!

So, is there anyplace that has a better price than $199?

Ebay 189.00 includes free shipping

I like the mount above the speedo... :thumbsup:

I'm checking to see if Gary McCoy sells them.

 

[TheAxeman]

I'm in for purchasing one also, maybe we can get a group buy thing going.

 

[Groo]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again... Unless he doesn't carry it, Gary M. almost always has the lowest prices on ANYTHING for a motorcycle. I just ordered one from him... ~$164 plus shipping, so $170 total. No group buy necessary... that's $30 cheaper than you can find it anywhere else. :yahoo:

+1 for Gary McCoy

$160 ish (don't recall exact price), I added it to my R1 shift lever order.

Now to burn through the new set of tires I installed last month so I can install this baby

I wonder if Gary sells a smart tire system for my cage? Hmmm

i've gone through lots of tire changes without problem. all by the same guy who installed it. i have mine wired into the turn signal so i get an alert in corners. it took me an embarassing length of time to figure out that my preassure or temps were not getting critical when i leaned into corners. that's only a 4 on my stupid scale. i'd never tell you guys anything higher than a 6.

I mounted mine below the gas gauge with velcro. The display is easily seen and not the wires.
