Default Help!!

Hey guys & girls,
I've been away for awhile, but now that Spring is coming, I'm getting pumped!!
I have an '09 Roadking Classic with spoke wheels. When I try to put air in the rear tire with my pump, I can't get to the valve. Is there some kind of extender that I can attach to the value and then pump air into the other end? Thanks.
Mike

Not sure what the problem is. I have an EG Classic and have no problem (apart from having to lie down or take the bags off) to put air in the rear tire. You just slot the feeder line through one of the holes in the disc. The biggest problem I found was getting a tire gauge on. I solved it by making my own screw-on no loss gauge. You can use the shock pump and as I remember one of the forum members posted a link to a commercially available zero loss gauge
