Welcome to the Top Super club
Yours has the same color scheme as mine. Neato!
I hope you like it as much as we Meidai loyalists do.

Here's a link on how to calibrate the pressure gauge, along with other general maintenance tidbits:
https://thechainlink.org/forum/topic...love-it?page=2

They also show a Silca air chuck for presta that may be more appropriate for pressures above 110psi than the SKS one I use. Or, as I said, put on whatever presta head you prefer. The presta head is a matter of personal preference.

Of note, I also have a Meidai "Baby" folding pump that straps across the forks of my Honda CB350. And another "Baby" in my desk drawer at work. I'm a bit of a fanatic.
