Anyone know of a european stockist for the 90 degree valve stems?

Unfortunately postage is $40 which makes these very expensive!

Erm...why?

Surely they will prevent the tyre sensors working?

None they are manufactured by the same OEM.

LDL technologies which is a French Company.

Check out http://www.tire-watch.com

Unfortunately the OEM doesn't reply to a request to purchase

I think here: http://www.mynetmoto.com/motorradreifen_divers.cfm/ActiveTab/shopping/ActiveLink/2/Search/1/category/88/StartRow/0

These are value stems with the TPS I think and without (part no S106010000A0)

Find the forum useful? Please think about donating<br /><br />Kawasaki 1400GTR 2009 - 2012<br />Honda XLV1000 Varadero  2007 - 2009<br />Suzuki DL650 V-Strom 2005 - 2008<br />Kawasaki GPZ 500s 2004 - 2005<br />Yamaha SR125 2003 - 2004

Excellent...... Thanks for that.

But are they 8.mm or 11.5mm without having to take off the tyres!

Maybe someone could setup a group buy.
I'd have a pair.

Put me down for a pair in Black please!

So we're saying that these will replace the oem ones and still work the tpms?   ( sorry it's early  :stupid:)

Yep they work fine. Saves having to muck around with those brass extensions.

As I remember the the TPS is seperate from the the stem. It's also sprung loaded to assist preventing damage if the tyre fitter clips it.


viper

next time I change a tyre im going to do the battery replacement in the TPS and incorp the angle valve stem at the same time

Lonewolf

Do the ones from Murph's also allow the TPS to continue to work or is just the ones from the second link?

Rotorbike

Murph's are the same item.

Actually cheaper than buying them from Europe with free shipping if you are that side of the pond. But $40 minimum shipping back to Europe is his best rate. Offered to ship as many as required though!

viper

you still have to remove the tyre, take out the Tps unit and swap the existing straight stem and replace with this 90 o stem. The tps is a separate unit that attaches itself to the stem wether straight or angled .
