Lots of people seem to use them but I had a shitty experience with one when I had my ZRX1100.
On a long motorway journey it managed to loosen itself and the front tyre deflated, had a nice wobble at 80mph!
Managed to pull over ok and slowly make it to the service area a mile away, a friendly Rac guy pumped it back up for and gave me a dust cap. The angled extension went in the bin. Never used once since even though I also find checking the tyre pressure on my FZ1 a bit of a fiddle.
