Exactly like the ones I'm using. I'm wish the display was brighter in the sun, but if you locate it well it's okay. No problems otherwise, and the batteries (both the coin cell tire stem cover ones the usb rechargable display) last and last.

I use the Show Chrome TireGard. Here are pictures from my F6B. They display both pressure and temperature, which is interesting as the rear temp increases by 25+ degrees when riding. For my Valks I keep the receiver attached to my belt, and it vibrates if pressures/temps exceed selected limits. As I remember they cost less than $70 online.

I tried several cheaper Amazon versions and they all seem fine doing the job but I ended up settling on the Garmin Zumo 595 integration. Love it. No extra display and it works great. Way too expensive for what it is but since I already had a dedicated Zumo unit I bit the bullet and bought the compatible sensors. Weirdly enough new generation Garmin GPS systems no longer provide that functionality

Here is the picture of the display. Wheel sensors look just like any other aftermarket system

I like the display, but prefer the sensors that mount inside the tire. I wonder if this would work with other 433mhz internal sensors?

It operates on 433.92 MHz and according to the pamphlet has a “Match Sensor” function where you vent air to get it to recognize the transmitter.
I have never used this function. I can swap it and the sensors in a few minutes between the Sportster (shown) and the Valk so I’m still on the original sensors with their 3rd replacement batteries.

Ok. Thanks. Prefer the internal sensors because it gives a more accurate temp reading.
