Clearly my mistake
Sorry about that.
I have a very original (apart from the indicators) 80cc Chappy that I might sell. It's complete with original key, but not running at the moment and I just have too many projects and no time to fix it...
I even have some paperwork (deregistration?) somewhere.
I would like to get 12k for it. Just...
That is actually a good (unintended?) question. That would be the only case where I tighten the nut to the rim.
I usually cut out the valve section from a old tube and fit it to the rim (tight-nutted :p). Then you can use air pressure to get the tyre with the mousse seated properly
Another good addition are those (Honda style) rubber valve mud guards. They keep dirt and moisture out once you have drilled the valve hole larger. I have those in stock.
I always tighten the nut against the valve cap. On my own bikes (or if customers ask for it) I file the valve hole to a oval shape or simply drill it bigger. The result is that the valve stem won't rip off immediately when the tyre shifts on the rim. The only reason why I keep the nut on is that...
