This project set me to work to investigate tire valves.  The
automotive all metal tire valves, the ones with the nuts that tighten
to hold the stems in place are also used for motorcycles.

Example:

de=tires&Product_Code=PUVS1218R&Category_Code=VALVE_STEM_ASSEMBLIES

Next time I can simply go to a NAPA store instead of a motorcycle
parts store to get one.  How cool is that.............?

Addendum: make sure you have the correct valve stem outside diameter
for your bike:

"Metal tubeless tire valve stem fits all cast wheels with .327"-.339"
holes."

Maybe for tubeless tires. Tubed tire motorcycles have always (on the
ones I own had a locking nut. If you meant the core for the
valve...it's a schrader valve, buy them in bulk if it makes you happy.
