I checked the inside of my wheel and the tire sensor and i cant see any reason why it shouldnt fit.

Aftermarket TPMS system for Harleys

Can you explain why they selling an aftermarket TPMS System for Harleys and your dealers told you it dont fit? Makes no sense.

Its the same thing like the new Boom GTS. Some dealers saying its impossible to retrofit and some dealers had it successful retrofitted.
Or they saying the new Harley Flipkey isnt working on older models. For sure its working but you need also a newer BCM.
Easy fix. Gets yours working and prove the point that it works. And I’m pretty sure no one has got the BOOM GTE working on an older bike yet.

Sure, no problem. I will do it.

You dont have to believe it. But its possible to get the Boom GTS working on older bikes. Some Harley dealers can do this on bike with MW8 engine. Some other guys wrote this in the GTS thread.

I hope you are right about the TMPS because I want this on my bike. Please keep us in the loop. If it does in fact work I’ll be adding it come first tire change.

But I’m kind of also in the camp that if it was that easy to do H-D would have a retro fit kit and making money off of it.

As as far as the GTS. This is the first time I’ve heard of someone actually getting it to work on an older bike. Seeing is believing. The internet is full of miss information. Just saying.

For example here is a video of 2018 Street Glide with Boom GTS.

Awsome. So there is a way.

Here is another question then. What is keeping you from mating the TPMS to your bike outside the rim to see if it fact will work?

That wont work.

The pressure sensor has three modes:
1. Test mode: Prevents data transmission during shipping and storage to maximize battery life.
2. Park mode: The sensor changes from test to park mode after detecting tire pressure of approximately 100 kPa (15 psi) for 4 minutes. The sensor transmits a periodic burst to the BCM approximately every 4 hours. A replacement sensor must be in park mode to be assigned to the BCM using the TPMS ACTIVATION TOOL (Part Number:HD-51794) and DIGITAL TECHNICIAN II (Part Number:HD-48650).
3. Drive mode: The sensor changes from park to drive mode after detecting wheel acceleration for approximately 12 seconds. The sensor transmits a periodic burst to the BCM approximately every minute. The sensor reverts to park mode after detecting no wheel acceleration for approximately 7 minutes.

The sensor will only work when the pressure is 15psi or more.
I need to go in park mode first.

Got ya. Well you obviously are up on this so like I said I for one really hope you get it working because I want this option as well. Keep us posted.

Subscribed.... If all I have to buy is the sensors for a 2018 SGS then I'm all for it.

I installed today the sensor in my front wheel.
It fits.
