Default Air chuck

So what air Chuck is everyone using to get at the valve with the tires with dual disc. I assume a 90 ° air chuck? My softail is fairly easy to get on the valve from the opposite side of the disc but yesterday when I went to check the pressure in the front tire on my 2014 CVO limited ( new to me ) all my long straight attachments I have were difficult to get in and around the brake disc to get squarely on the valve. Just curious.

I use this...

Has a handy little pressure gauge that pops-out. Works well.

Me too ... My 2009 FLHTCU has spoke wheels and it was a pain in the a$$ to check / fill the rear tire until I got of of those ... Much easier task now

Suggestion. When you install new tires, buy and install 90 degree valve stems from Kurvy Girl. That solutions any problems putting sir in your tires. Money well spent.

Have been using this for a couple years. Hose "clips" on and does not need to be threaded. Well worth it. They also make a non filling pressure gauge you can throw in your bag.

For the wheels on my EG standard (valve stem in center, facing straight up) I use a Jaco inflator with a 90 degree clip on adapter.
