Thank you so much for all of your advice. I must admit, I too am very picky about my cars and about my new bike. So what if my wife calls me anal or obsessive compulsive, shes just not as dedicated to perfection as I am. LOL Dont tell my wife I said that. LOL Anyway, Thanks again for the advice. I will try ordering a set of tires from my works warehouse, ATD (American Tire Depot) I was told they can get motorcycle tires. You all have given me the confidence to do it myself. Thanks again for the warm welcome and the great advice.

From looking at the pics it seems that you lock the tire into the device and then use the long lever in a circular spinning motion to remove the tire. Is this correct? I have been told that you have to use old school levers with this HF stand to remove the tires. Any help and information is very appreciated. Thanks.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #127572 BigBoyinMS (User) BigBoy. BigBike. Expert Boarder Posts: 483 Re:Mounting and Balancing Tire Questions 3 Months ago   I just put a car tire on the rear of my Venture and had to do it myself. After doing a little online reading I used a piece of 1x2 oak and a lever under the truck frame to break the beads and 3 $6 tire irons from Harbor Freight. Wasn't a big deal at all. To balance I used the axle from the bike and 2 jack stands.   Logged     2006 Midnight. Roland, The Roadie   The administrator has disabled public write access.
