B2601 valve stems different?

[milanmark]

I have a B2601, left front tire looks low so I tried to check the pressure. Tire gage didn't fit, so I just tried putting air in, the inflator chuck didn't work either... something different with these? Tires were loaded when I bought it (new). Help please!

Your dealer may have upgraded you to a more HD valve stem. Maybe a 16mm stem vs the lighter 11.5mm stem

Take a picture of the valve stem from top and post it. It will be easier to help you if we can see it

You may be missing part of the valve stem??

Look at any of the other valves that can fit into your air chuck.

They may have forgotten to put the adapter in the valve stem. It could have the large bore valve stem that is used on big tires and they require a screw in adapter to use regular air chucks and gauges.
