just had an idea,
#1
you know when your wheelieing, and go off to one side because the rear tires are at different psi? well my idea will make them both exactly the same. somehow get two pumps and splice two hookups together, so their about 6 feet long ( away from eachother ). then you can just turn on the pump with both the rear, or front tires getting the exact same psi.

How about you just get a length of hose (about 6 feet long), put a valve in the center and attach a tire chuck to each end. Place each side on the valve stem, open the valve and you have 2 perfectly even tire pressures.

It will work even if one tire is flat and the other full. The hose coming from the pump is tee'd into two hoses, one connected to each tire.
The pressure will equalize between the two just like Blaster97 said it would with a hose across the two. As you pump up the tires the pressure will always be equalized regardless of how out of ballance it started from.

The idea would work but only in theory. If all ATV tires were made to the same exacting standards as the next then yes it would. But tire inflation is not the only determining factor in going straight. The actual circumference of the tire is the most important thing. Both tires must travel the same distance when turning each revolution. I learned this the hard way after getting a poorly matched set of Blackwaters. My quad always pulled to the left even when the tires were inflated exactly the same. After measuring the tires I found almost 1 1/2 inches difference in circumference between them. After correcting air pressure to gain the same circumference it then tracked straight. I had to run almost 1 pound more in one than the other.
Sorry for getting so technical but it drove me nuts for a while until I realized the problem.
