Default TPMS Tech Tip

I came across this Harley Tech Tip and figured I'd share it. If any of your install your own TPMS and tires, this is applicable.
https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...72245-0001.pdf
Purpose for Technical Tip: To inform dealers of the use and operations of vehicles equipped with TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System). This system offers convenient monitoring of air pressure within each tire, and alerts the rider if tire pressures fall below specification. Both dealers and customers have raised questions regarding TPMS and how the system works. The intention of this bulletin is to answer some questions, and improve the general knowledge of:
• Functioning tire pressure sensors
• Installation practices

Why not, I'm guessing all they have to do is break your tire down and install the TPM unit and then flash your bike for it, least I hope so because when I'm due for tires I would like to have it.
