tire pressure on goldwings/trikes question

[bumlbe]

After a Goldwing is triked, will it still send a message that the front tire is low?

I'm not aware of any trikes that the tpms works on the rear wheels.

Also, how do you identify a wheel with tpms? Does the valve stem look different?

Thanks for your help.

You don't mention the year and model of your wing but I guess you must have a late model with built-in TPMS and consequently I can't answer your question.

On a Non-TPMS bike there are valve stem sensors available for either two wheels or trikes. I bought a set for my 2006 Wing last year and just had it triked so will now put both sensors on the rear wheels.

There will be a message but it will be on all the time because the rear tire and sensor is removed.....that's why most simply disable the TPMS

I think there are aftermarket automotive systems that will work but am not aware of a way to use the stock system for the rear wheels (stock system is obviously for two wheels only)

Also, how do you identify a wheel with tpms? Does the valve stem look different?
Yes, the stems are totally different...the valve stem is a square metal block with the valve sticking out to the side and is made to hold the sensor inside the wheel
