Is checking motorcycle tire pressure important? 

That very important. Make for a safer ride, make the tire last longer. To That's a very good subject Thanks for sharing. I check mine every Friday or at least once a week

I check before each ride. Habit. Had a valve stem crack and leak on the front. Tire looked normal but was critically low on PSI. Never trust a sight inspection. Takes a few seconds to test.

I have a very different attitude to checking tyre pressures on my car and my bike, yes my car has automatic pressure monitoring but with or without it I probably only physically check my car tyre pressures every couple of months, but always before a long journey. I ride my bike on average twice per week and I check the pressures every time and adjust if it’s only half a pound out. I’m always surprised how much the ambient temperature affects my bike tyre pressure. My oil level has to be checked hot, so I check that after every ride of 20 miles or more. Due to de-industrialisation here in the UK people seem a lot less mechanically minded than when I was a youth and they often don’t do basic maintenance tasks. I was watching a video the other day by a MotoVlogger who has over 250k subscribers, they went out on a superbike they hadn’t ridden for months and after a few miles realised the tyre pressures weren’t right. It turned out that the front was half the pressure it should have been. Good grief ! 🇬🇧

I would like to see TPMS become mandatory on all new bikes.

Seems to be a problem with puppy bikers. Everything needs to be infront of you rather than manually checking anything 😂😂😂 🇨🇦 to each their own I guess.
