Just wondering if I can use the Harley pressure gauge for the rear suspension and also for the tires as well?

I would not use mine for anything other than the suspension...

Buy a tire gauge!
You wouldn't be able to put air in the tire with that gauge.
It's meant for pumping the air shocks, not tires.

Thanks! Also, I did not notice yet if I can add shock air w/o having to take off bag?

You can add air to the shocks by just opening the saddlebag lid. Also, the mounting plate for the valve is fairly malleable metal. I easily bent mine to a better angle that helps me get the air pump / gauge on there even easier. Works great!
