Shock - Fill Valve Extension

I had to take my saddlebags off to adjust my shocks...what a pain! I looked at the progressive tube kit to hook the shocks to a common valve, but wanted somethig simpler.
I bought 2 45 degree chrome tire valve extensions. I think they were about $16 shipped. It works really well.

Good idea but I don't know why you had to remove your bags. I can fill or adjust the pressure in mine with my progressive pump with out removing anything.
