For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Get them to reduce the length of the compression canister by 10mm so you don't have to chop the schraeder valve with a dremel. While it's apart it's a simple job for any suspension specialist.

I had that done to the white spring RSV Sachs in my Falclimber.

Or get him to fit the flush mount schraeder valve - no chopping of anything required - quite a few have done it this way.
