Tire pressure Sensor Troubleshooting

Click For Summary
Aftermarket tire pressure sensors may not be compatible with the 2014 K1600 GTL motorcycle due to potential communication issues with the OEM control module. It's important to ensure that any aftermarket option can be programmed correctly during installation. The original poster is seeking advice on reliable motorcycle forums for further insights. They also mention the high costs and backorder status of dealer parts. Exploring community resources and temporary solutions could provide the necessary assistance for tire pressure monitoring.

TL;DR
Tire pressure sensor for my K1600 motorcycle.
Good day, all
I have a K1600 motorcycle. Will an after market tire pressure sensor work on a 2014 GTL? Dealers are crazy expensive and was told today that they are on back order. After search the TPMS Sensor Guide, I've new tires ready to be mounted, but a little confused. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

You have to be careful with aftermarket TPMS monitors. Some flat out will not be able to communicate with the motorcycle's OEM control module or they might not be able to be programmed with the mechanics TPMS remote when installing.
 

Thread 'Can you get pulled under a train?'

Assume that a 100m long (probably irrelevant) train travelling at 30m/s, with a mass of 100.000 Kg passes next to a man/woman of 100 Kg standing still at 1 m away from the track. Since air is massively displaced by the train, creating like a small vacuum/low pressure area next to its surface, I reckon a certain pull may be applied to anything the train passes by, so in this case a person. My question is very simple: this pull can be quantified by a force. Is this force enough to pull the...
