    Anyone know what size the tire valves are? I'm needing new ones and I can't seem to find them anywhere in town

    You won't find them at any local shop, they are unique to Yamaha. PM Chacal, he can have you a pair in a few days.

    24.00 I went back with a curved stem instead of a straight one.

    Do you know what the size is? I am trying to find some as well. I thought I read that it is 8.3 mm, but u can't find any confirmation on it.
