I have tried checking air in rear tire and based on location of valve stem simply can not get tire gauge on (tried 4 different tire gauges). Also can't get air chuck on. Based on the location of the stem, the one spoke and spoke nipple gets in the way. Almost seems like valve stem hole located in wrong spot. Can anyone offer a suggestion? I've had several spoke wheel Harley's over the years and this is the first time I've encountered this problem. Thanks

Same situation on the Revival. I'm able to get this pres guage on to check. Working on solution for fill. I've had plenty of 16" spoked wheels on 2014,15 and 16 softails and the valve stem was easy to get to.
Success Gentlemen! Came at from even a different angle with HD flexible extension and screwed it on. Still a bad design. Im curious if everyone with an Icon model has the same issue.
