Quick question - the front tire valve on my '90 VFR750 is not accepting air. I changed out the tire stem and it didn't fix anything.

The old valve stem looked just fine, too.

Also, when I had the stem removed - no air escaped through the stem.

To me, this indicates my stem may be clogged up.

I was going to try and clean it out tomorrow but wanted to run it by the trust first.

Maybe the cause is slime or some such (?)

I was going to try poking a stiff wire through it first to see if it did anything.

Thoughts?
