HGP61 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 My bike saw the light of day this morning after nearly three and a half months of hibernation WOO HOO. All ready to head out to the MOT garage. I'm not usually an unnecessary bling adding rider but couldn't help but add an extra bit of colour to take away the all black look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duckie Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 My 04 r1 was parked for 5 years. Yesterday, charged the battery, put gas in it…….started right up. She wants to go play on the track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make life so much easier when checking air pressure, especially on the front. AND, they are available in gold. 😎 https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/tires-and-wheels/k-%26-l-90-degree-valve-stem-p?s=1281661 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of installing something like that, tires have done over 7,000 miles so will probably getting new tires sometime this year, probably pick up angled stems then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might seem obvious but make sure they are installed facing to the right so you can access them when the bike is leaned over on the side stand. 1 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
