Is there any reason a 2014 GS can’t be fitted with the right angled tyre valves the new 1250 has? My K1600 had them and they made life so much easier.

Has anyone already done this?
 
the gs cast wheels have side facing valves, do you have spoked wheels,
I have a 90 degree screw on adapter in my tool kit which makes spoked wheels easier, £ 3 on e bay,
don't leave it in place when riding , i have seen valve stems snapped off due to the weight it adds,
 
the spoked weels valves are side facing as well on the 1250
 
Yeah mines got spokes, I know you can buy the right angled adapters but if they were a permanent fixture like on the 1250 that would make life so much easier.
 
The angled valves of the 1250 spoked wheels will fit the 1200 LC spoked wheels, but if you have tyre pressure sensors, you will need to buy new ones that will fit the 1250 valves.

Well, that is what my dealer told me. I didn’t think it was worth that much ...
