You can get them cheaper on fleabay, the dealer might not accept them to install however.
They COULD say OEM only.
Call and find out.
The wheel HAS to come off to change them, no way around it.

I'd be curious how the instrumentation "knows" there is a missing TPMS sensor? Factory Wiring Diagram might be a place to start. On my "Other" motorcycle the TPMS system is a dedicated module that is wired to the instrument cluster. By way of rearragning a few wires of the TPMS module, the Instruemt Cluster became a happy camper and turned the lights out. A quick way to know, if this might be an option, is to see if Harley has a Part Number for a TPMS module on your bike. A dedicated TPMS module would make "adjustments" possible.

My 2016 Harley CVO Limited TPMS rear wheel reads zero. what could cause this and how much will it cost torepair. What part numbers
On a 2016 Harley-Davidson CVO Limited (FLHTKSE), if the rear TPMS reading shows "0" while the tire is actually inflated, the most common causes are:
Most likely causes
- Failed TPMS sensor battery (most common)
- The battery is sealed inside the sensor and is not serviceable.
- Original sensors are now about 10 years old, which is beyond the typical 510 year battery life.
- When the battery dies, the bike can lose communication with the sensor and display no pressure or an incorrect reading.
- Failed TPMS sensor electronics
- The sensor itself can fail internally.
- Harley owners have reported rear sensors on 2016 models requiring replacement.
- Sensor damaged during tire service
- If tires were recently changed, the sensor can be damaged during mounting/dismounting.
- Harley specifically warns that tire sealants and improper tire work can damage TPMS sensors.
- TPMS communication/relearn issue
- Less common if only one wheel is affected.
- Can occur after wheel or tire replacement.
Harley part numbers
For your 2016 FLHTKSE rear wheel, Harley parts catalogs show:- TPMS Sensor 42300114 (tire pressure monitor)
- TPMS Assembly 42300118
- Earlier sensor listings for 2016 Touring/CVO wheels also show:
- 32700052A
- 32700053
Expected repair cost
Repair Typical Cost TPMS sensor only $70$150 Harley OEM sensor $100$180 Tire removal/reinstall & balance $50$120 Total at independent shop $120$250 Total at Harley dealer $180$350The rear wheel must be removed and the tire bead broken to replace the sensor. Owners report the tire must be dismounted from the wheel for sensor replacement.Before buying parts
- Check actual tire pressure with a gauge.
- Turn ignition on and ride a few miles.
- Look for any TPMS warning lamp.
- If the rear still reads 0 while the front reads normally, I would put the odds at 8090% that the rear sensor battery has died and the sensor assembly needs replacement.
