Valve Stem

[Ham]

Hey just purchased some 90 degree valve stems. I think i read some were that they are supposed to point to the right side of the bike. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks

When it is on the kickstand it's much easier to access on right side. So that's what I would do.

I have them on my bike, and you are correct sir. Right side is the way to go, great little mod.

Had to check...yep, mine were also installed facing right. Should come standard with the antilock brake bikes!

agree with above. work RH or LH but RH is best for airing up on the kickstand. Use blue LokTite on threads that hold stem in wheel...don't go too tight with aluminum--though it's a pretty hefty thread. Tight--maybe 7 or 8 ft lbs. That will seal it.
