Angled valve stems available?
I want to put on on my front wheel. Seems like I've heard before it's problematical, but that's not the answer I'm looking for. I know there's some on other brands; can't they be put on our wheels?

they're out there, steve. I had a pair of the gold-anodized screw-ons (on top of the original valve stem, think I got 'em from sjbmw) and I didn't like 'em, gave them to my bud with a triumph sprint executive...

Yeah, but they're suprisingly hard to find. I got a set of MVAgusta ones from FbF for my S's PVMs. I think some of the sportbikes come with them now, so the hot tip may be to look around your local Kawayamazukida emporium and order some OEM bits from the relevant bike. They were close to impossible to find 2 years ago, but I've noticed them more lately at the track. Sorry, can't recall the model.

You can get them through Parts Unlimited now. I've got the 90 degree ones on all my bike's front wheels
