I was sitting here at work when one of the woman was like "hey bobby some kids just took something off your car, and i look out the window and see two kids ride away on bikes, and i wasnt gonna let this just go, so i dropped what i was doig and ran out the door accross the parking lot and i suprised the kid when i asked him for my valve stems back and he gave me two of them which at the time i thought was all they took, and i went back to my car to put them on only to discover the other two were missing also, so as i look around the parking lot, i see the two kids disapear behind a Superfresh and again i track them down to where i rip the one kid off his bike and threatened them for the other two but i couldnt fidn them on the kids so i let them go with the threat if i ever saw them again theyd be dead.
Anyway i always keep a spare set of valve stems in my car for when kids try and steal them so i put those on. Im so paranoid now looking out my window every 5 seconds. Im at least glad i caught the kids that did it.

 

Get yourself some locking "theft-proof" valve stem caps. I've had mine for two and a half years and no problems.

 

Yep. Popular items with the kids those are.

Try these and you'll not have to worry anymore.

Ditto, I have those as well.

 

Those Z ones are pretty cool. I think I'm gonna pick up a set.

 

might be careful as they might come back for revenge. what's so great about valve stem that kids wants them?

 

Sould have taken his bike...Made tha punk walk home crying.

 

Hahaha! Sorry bixby but when I first read this, I started thinking "Yoda"???

 

They were probably already mounted on his bicycle!

 

+1 keep the bike until they cough up the rest of your stuff.

I hope you let his parents know what the little punk did.

 

You're probably right!

 

LOL! Wow smart guy. I didn't even think of that.

 

Yeh, I was thinking the same thing when I wrote it.

 

This would definitely save you the headache of these things getting stolen again. It would be a smart investment.

 

You should've take the one's off of hist bike until he gave you urs back.

 

Get yourself a MP5.. LOL those little punks will never mess with your Z again.

 

Do these theft-proof caps work with the TPS system?

 

Yes they do. I have the Z logo ones on my touring. There's nothing special about TPS caps.

 

Hahaha.....You dont remember pencil fighting?? We used to look for those in Jr High so we can bust out the ultimate Chinese pencil.

 

dude i never jacked valve stems in jr high lolz. So no idea why kids would want them. they look pretty cool but what would i do with them since i have no Z yet lol.
