I have a '12 with TPMS that is getting triked with a '14 Motortrike Razor. I didn't get to ask installer, but will my TPMS be disabled, or is there a way to leave it intact for the front wheel?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I kind of thought so, but why won't a single sender unit work???Disabled (as with all Trike conversions currently) unless you purchase and install one of the after-market TPMS Kits. There are a few out there as well as a few Dealer/Installers who sell them. Ask yours about those if you wish to have that function post-conversion. If they don't, contact Gregg at Gene's Gallery in Springfield, MO. They have carried those for a while now and can provide a TPMS Kit for self-install if you want. Those are listed on Gene's Website if you want to check them out.
+1:clapping:The other option is to do what I did and go with an aftermarket Garmin 590LM. That gives me a great GPS, a TPMS (as many tires as I want to buy sensors for), Weather, Pandora, and turn by turn directions through the Honda audio system.
Couldn't ask for a better setup.
I just wrote the check today for a CSC Viper today and had this conversation with the installer. He told me that under the right front panel they make a change with a jumper that disables the monitoring of the rear tire but still reads the front pressure.

My intention with this thread was to find out if after triking, the front TPMS is still functioning.
I always check my tires with a good guage, but it would be nice to know, when tooling down the highway, if your front tire has a leak and loosing air.
I still don't believe that anyone has verified this.
Monitoring and Checking those Tires "manually" before every Ride is a Great Way to spot Other Possible Problems before hand.....I prefer to rely on a hand held pressure gauge with my Trikes, Motorcycles, and Scooters.......ThumbUp
