Great review Mike. I added the FOBO Bike 2 TPMS system to my st1300 last year and it works great. So much so that I'm thinking about installing a set of the FOBO Bike 2 tpms sensors for my son on his Suzuki GSX-s750. It's true what you said about the battery life. I got about 3 months from the first set, but the peace of mind is well worth it. Good point about the T valves as well. I have the metal 90 degree valve stems installed on my st1300 during the last tire change, but I think the T valves is the way to go. I would think that it makes it a heck of a lot easier to top up the pressure when needed. Something to be considered for my next tire change. Great review buddy, glad you're back at it. Thanks for posting.
Yeah, the batteries included aren't great. I found using Energizer lithium gave me much more battery life Glad you're enjoying your fobo sensors, and yeah the T valves are definitely worth getting. Thanks for watching, and good luck with the giveaway 🤞
@@MRMRS2wheeler thanks for the lithium battery tip. Another thing I found that helped save battery on the second set was to force shutdown the Fobo app when done riding, if not then I would be getting real time pressure readings while I was in my house when I was close enough to my bike. That’s how good this product is.
I have had a set on my CBR1000RR for the past 6 years and I absolutely love them. They haven’t let me down. My question is; how do you set up the overlay feature you talked about? I tried to look it up but can find the info. Thank you. If I end up being selected for your set of FOBO BIKE 2, I will install them on my CRF300L Rally. Thank you.
Start the app, then click on profile (right bottom corner), then look just under theme color and you'll find overlay services, tap and you're done. Hope this helps, and good luck.
@@MRMRS2wheeler Thanks for the reply. Perhaps it’s because I am using an iPhone instead of an android but I don’t have the overlay feature located where you are saying. Under Theme colour is “Long Alarm” for me. Thanks anyhow. I appreciate your help.
Hey Mike, I traded my ST1300 on a Goldwing and I'm glad I did. It's much better for the type of riding we do and my wife loves it. Thanks for the video. I'm looking forward to your camper videos. Cheers!
@@jerrycrafton9388 Hey Jerry, I know eventually I will end up with a goldwing too. Glad to hear you don't regret the decision. We are trying to get out and camp in the camper real soon. Ride safe buddy
I never heard of a bike tire with 15 psi. What kind of bike is it? What size tire? That seems way too low. For reference, my bike tire is rated 42 psi.
Apparently the Spyder f3 does take 15psi. Still seems low to me. The +2, means plus or minutes 2lbs. That would be determined by weight, temperature outside etc. With that said, 15 is probably the lowest pressure you sould put. I've read that most run at least 22 in front and 25 in rear. Again, it is based on weight. The more weight, the higher you should inflate. (Just a few pounds extra) I would recommend to check with a local dealer to be safe.

I’m going to install the FOBO Bike2 on my 1997 Honda 1100 Tourer. This will help my peace of mind when 2up touring! Thank you!
It really does give peace of mind.
Thanks for watching & good luck 🤞
Hey Mike! I would be installing the FOBO Bike 2 on my 2022 FJR1300. Love those sensors. I had some on my old bike but included them in the sale.

That will likely be my next bike. How do you like it compared to the st?
Thanks for watching and good luck 🤞

FOBO bike2 Cool would add to my 2008 Honda Goldwing
A little late buddy.
Make sure you're subscribed.
Stay tuned for future giveaways.
Just put new rubber on my 08 Wing and added the FOBO 2’s with T-Valves. They seem to work great! I may add a set to my Harley as well.
You're gonna be very happy with them.
Save yourself the time and just add them to the Harley. You're gonna end up doing it eventually.
Ride safe
Not sure how to read the sticker on my bike for tire pressure...it ays cold tire pressure 15+2 psi..does this mean lowest 15 - highest 17?
