« on: March 17, 2013, 03:41:30 PM »

I'm pulling the wheels (as soon as the snow melts enough to get into the garage) and getting them powder coated (Mirror Black).  I will be replacing the valve stems with new ones.  Here's my problem--I lost the web site that had the all metal (in various colors), 45 degree valve stems.

Anyone have that site--I've searched but no luck.  I think they run about $30-$40 for a pair but they will look good with the new black wheels.

I'll be doing the usual rear wheel maintenance at that time also.

TIA

Here's where I got mine:  http://www.motorcycleanchor.com/tire_valves/index.htm  Probably the same thing.

Yup - Farther.  they look the same.  The web site writeups are about identical.  Lucky for me they are on sale for $26.95/pr. on the KurveyGirl site.  Just ordered them.

thanks

I'm compelled to point out the caveat on their page about grinding down the protrusion near the old valve stem that was for the plastic/rubber OEM valve stem. Probably a simple job but a lot less stressful when doing it on the wheel BEFORE powder coating!

I use their stems on my bike, they also send you a sticker that says " Curvey Girl, motorcycle stuff not porn" .

I mount those onto my Valk rear rim, and rotated them 45' so they would fit between the raise "T" and the rim. Makes it usable and still accessable, without cutting it off.

Thanks for all the info guys.  I just received an e-mail this morning--their on their way.

More snow expected for the next few day, maybe a little warmer next week.  Looks like a couple more weeks before I can move the bike in the garage tickedoff---but it will happen cooldude
