I have the Steelmate system, and it shares one slightly annoying issue with that one...
To save battery life the sensors go to sleep & you have to move the bike to a certain speed (or distance in my case) to wake them up. You're not going to go out to the garage, take a quick peek at the readout & go on your way.

I use the Garmin TPMS with my Zumo 390LM. No problem.
Metal stems required, they go into sleep mode after a few stationary minutes, but wake up after one full round of the wheel. With that, it would not do for shock psi.
It is nice to check tire psi on the fly, and low level alarms are a bonus.
According to my research, virtually all of the wireless sensors go to sleep until the tire moves. The only other option would be to have it transmit all the time, which would kill the battery.
As for the original post, I like the display of that one, but that would require mounting a lighter socket and seems like it would be prone to falling out or being stolen.
I went with the steelmate and here is a photo of it mounted. As others have said, get steel valve stems. I had my wheels balanced with the sensors installed.
They make one specifically for motorcycles. Comes with two sensors. A display that can be handlebar mounted or stuck to a dash and hard wired for power. TP-90 is the model number i think. Priced on Amazon from $65 - $120 depending on seller.

I was looking for one that can read three (front, rear and the shocks). Keeping the shock one on/activated would be the kicker. Thanks for the input!
