Joe, your relating about having a tire go down and another bike having a
FRONT tire go down, certainly gave me big eyes!  My stems and caps will be
metal, for sure.  

Man, I love this list!

                Jim your valve stems are perpendicular to the rim when you
look at it, at rest,  why dont you spin your
                wheel up to the equivalent rpm to match 169mph, perhaps on a
dyno, then get a strobe light on it, see if your valve stems are still
straight up an down.....if they are rubber you might be in for a surprise 
                as far as not believing they valve stem core depressing at
speed,  well thats your choice.........maybe you believe that pistons and
rods are always solid, and maintain their shape.........

                Joe :)
