Im going to install a FOBO tpms and Tvalve, Does anyone know if it is necessary to still use the valve stem keeper?

no need for the keeper any more.
I've spent most my money on Motorcycles and Women, the rest I just wasted.
You HAVE to grind down the metal "tit" on the rim; that the keeper fastens to btw... so be ready to do that... if you want to keep the TPMS in place on the top of the T-Valve and use the horizontal valve for checking air and/or adding air.

Instead of grinding the "keeper" off, you can install a valve extender which you can buy at most auto parts stores. Now it's easy to air up.

I did not grind off the tab, but I did turn the T valve to point opposite stock. I never did like the idea of the valve pointing to the down side when the bike is on the side stand.
Much easier for me to check the front PSI this way.
