Low Pressure Tire Gage...Recommendations??

[Maico]

My old '87 LT500 factory Suzuki low pressure tire gage is in need of replacement. Can't read the dial anymore. Any recommendations?? Any good digital low pressure gages out there??

[ATC-Eric]

Digital!!!! Get one.

[Maico]

I kinda figured that !! LOL.:rolleyes: The stuff on E-Bay looks like inaccurate junk.

Ive got a low preasure one from the honda quad we bought a couple years back, but wouldnt trust it. The things all plastic and cheap. Im all over the digital.

[Maico]

What digital do you use??

Those zuki ones are awesome...I have the one that came from my dad zilla in 89. still works. And seriously, its only 1-8 psi...do you really need to spend the money for .01 accuracy. Hell I just wheelie and if it pulls to one side I adjust.

The problem is that the gage bezel is so scuffed up from riding in the factory tool bag that you can't read the dial anymore.

I just want a cool new toy for my tool box!! LOL!!:Bounce

OMG just connect the two tires together and POOF! they are balanced!

Perfect wheely everytime!

Unless there are other factors in determining doing a straight wheely, like hardness of the rubber, and tread depth. But I bet you this is a good place to start.

Sears has some good ones for 10-20 bucks.
Walmart also has a fair $10 one

Napa sells one that reads in .5 lb increments for about $15. Well worth the money.

I just kick the tire with my foot to check it! Or use the stock gauge i got with my 200x. I would never spend over 5 on a tire gauge. They dont have to be perfect for riding. For wheelies they need to be close but fractions of a LB dont really matter. I can still wheelie straight with semi different pressure.

My brother and some of the other dirt track racers back home use this and it works great. It's only 20 bucks too...can't go wrong!

I got this Sears vacuum gauge years ago, and put a air fitting on it for trike tires. I like it a lot.
