Default Tire Gauge 2009 Ultra

What tire gauge is everybody using for the newer Ultra's? I find a regular one I have to bend over the valve stem just to check air pressure.

Try a search on the issue. There were lots of good ideas out there a few months back. I use a 10 year old off-set (45 degree) Harley gauge. When positioned just right, minimal bend in the stem.

I use the HD guage with the right angle chock at the end of the 12' hose.
Not great but it works.

I like this gauge but i'm not sure if it will work on the new wheels.The straight are chuck might be a problem.I use the HD gauge with the 90 deg chuck.

Yeah have one, it works great, but you do have to bend the valve on the front wheel in order to get it on.
