you clip it to the shrader valve and add air neer the gage . very accurate .
comes with a lifetime replacement garentee. save the package.
I bought three to get the free shipping and gave two as christmas gift gifts .

I'm only 52 and I feel your pain. I've been putting my bike up on the lift table so that I don't have to lay on the floor. There just isn't a lot of room between those spokes (but damn they look nice!)

Ok, I stopped by my local HD Dealer today and bought a "Valve Stem Extension". I'll give it a try tomorrow.

Nice products mentioned above, but you still have to get down on your belly like a reptile to connect it to the schrader valve. I don't see any advantage. I'm 65 and still lay down next to the rear wheel to connect. If it's nice weather, you can lay on a rug and take a nap. At 65 naps are good.

This helps with my funky angle SG stem, may work for you too. see post 22 https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...e-gauge-3.html
