That is a dealer item.But a schrader valve stem and cover fits perfectly,and is more compact than the Suzuki tool.The Suzuki tool is a little to long to adjust the intake valves without moving the wiring harness.Also a Robinson head screw and a short piece of hose work well.
:cool:

You should be able to pick one up at any tire shop,or auto store.You can put what ever length valve stem on that you want.

Actually carrying a spare valve stem and Shrader cap is a great way to protect a new valve core if/when one goes south while riding. Went to check the pressures one day, removed the valve cap and it went Psssss. Yeah, it happens now and again.

Just want to clear this up in my mind. Were you actually thinking of a Robertson screw head or is a Robinson a different screw that I am unaware of ?

Re: Where to get a Valve Adjuster Wrench ???

I was thinking the same thing. I just bought the bike on Friday. I was looking over the manual and saw that I had the adjust the valves on the motor. They listed a part number. When you answered you sent a picture of a tire valve wrench used to install/ remove AIR valves on tires. Do you use the same tool or are we talking about two different things ?????

Thanks JIM

Yes, the head of the screw with a piece of hose over the threads.
