I use an extension hose. http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US
I still have to lay down next to the bike. But once you have it screwed onto the valve, it's a whole bunch easier to check/fill the tire.

Don't you have to have metal valve stems to use TPMS systems?

I do not - and the security 'feature'(ring with allen set screw) still works
***** Important Addition - I switched rims to HD Airstrikes because the 28 non-coated aluminum was such a POS - I have not tried the item I mentioned with the 28 spoke rim
