I wanted tyre pressure monitoring on the bike, going to Bmw dealer and tell them to fit it is an option , a veeeery expensive option.
Almost $850 for parts alone.
Pure aftermarket systems either look bad or are clumsy sitting on the valvestem, some does not work due to hitting calipers.
I wanted OEM.
I got my parts used off of ebay, installed the controlunit, it is just a plug and 3 screws under the seat.
Off with the tyres and fit the sensors, i have equipment for this at home. Look up Max2h.com , great machine the Evo II.
Connected to the bike via Motoscan and coded the zfe (chassis computer) and the Kombi (dash).
Now i have pressure but also found a setting normally not active, temperature.
Apperently all sensor has this built in but it is not active.
Front oem sensor died short after fitting, bought a chinese one along with a cheap wakeup tpms tool and it worked.
Doing this myself with used parts the total came to $251.
