Re: 90° tyre valve adaptors?
My Daytona's got 'em too!
Nice one Triumph. In seriousness you'll get the knack of doing it with the standard valves. I remember when I started riding finding it a bit of a mission. |

Re: 90° tyre valve adaptors?
the S4 has them and the Superduke had one on the rear, I got the front one changed from a straight to an angled one at the tyre change, so now both are the same, does make life easier.
Cheers Mark.

Re: 90° tyre valve adaptors?
Good morning all.
Screw on 90 degree adaptors a supposed to be removed before riding. I've seen plenty of rubber valves that are seperating because of the weight of the angle valve, & centrifugal force. Use 'em & take 'em off afterwards. In order to replace the standard rubber valves with the 90 degree type as fitted to Triumphs you will need 11mm valves & not 8mm as shown. Also £26.99 a pair!! I'm doing them at £6 each when fitting tyres. Cheers. Last edited by Spanner Man; 30-03-11 at 07:01 AM. |

Re: 90° tyre valve adaptors?
The Tuono has a metal valve so can't bend it like other bikes making it near on impossible to do.
