    Man, I thought I was anal about pressures. I just use the digital read out on the dash to adjust pressures. I get it, some tires will be 29.5 others 29.1, but no tire manufacturer requires you to keep your pressures within 1/10 psi to keep their mileage warranty intact

    i have a Slime digital gage and it works damn well.......i have the cycle pump gage sold for motorcycles along with their cycle pump.......pump is great and works well....but, i have the BMW TPMS kit on my motorcycle and the valve stems are a bit smaller and the 90degree clamps do not stay on making it impossible for me to use very well.....i have spoken to Dave the owner and he is working on something that may make it more useable.....

    the game work great on standard valve stems though and is pretty damn accurate.....i double check the Slime gage and the Cycle Pump gage with the motorcycle TPMS readouts.....they all are within +/- 1 psi......great customer service though

    so don't preface your comments by saying its impossible to get the same pressure in all tires then say you can if you keep it in the garage......

    I wish my super Tenere was only 2% off. You'd think with using abs sensors they would make them more accurate.

    My original never stayed on standard stems either. Otherwise, it works like a charm after a lot of beating on trips.

    The Astro inflator is well worth the money. I have 2 of them that I use regularly, one in my toolbox and one in the truck with my Viair.

    thats not the issue with BMW.....they got sued for the ODO/speed-o.......so they calibrate them or design them with a built in error to insure that your speed in lower than the poster limit when reading the bike ODO gage
