Rear Tire Installation Failure

[Ray]

Here’s a pic of my changer ( and all of the junk around it) and of the extras I bought with it. Also the previously purchased Motion Pro products.
I know, it adds up. But I’m a hopeless tool junkie anyway


Last thing I'll add: When I first got my No Mar I practiced with some old tires and a couple of rims from my brothers old (totalled) ZRX1100. Same size as the RS rims. You will get better at it, Wayne :-)

Agree - stay on it. Watch a couple more videos of guys wrestling tires onto rims (or the guys at Fortnine slipping on an automobile tire), and you'll feel more comfortable in your application of diffuse force. If the fit is tight, the more tire irons and wood blocks (or sticks by the side of the road), the better....

That said, and not to steer this thread away from tires - but DC Dave - noticed the old Hauni badge on your work bench.... Italian bikes and German cigarettes seem like a bad match. With smoking tastes like that, I guess only natural you'd gravitate to BMW Motorrad.
