Quickest way to fuck the seals in your wheel is to grease the spacers! the grease gives the dirt something to stick too and unless it's "rubber" grease it will perish the rubber over time...
Hi, very informative. I tend to adjust my chain to within half a turn and then push the wheel upto the adjuster, then do the final turns. I find that it pulls the wheel uniformly and doesn't leave a small gap, hence straight.
It amazes me how manufacturers put little thought into the fact that tires need changing and punctures occur these days. I have a couple of 70's era Suzuki's and on those the wheel can come out leaving the sprocket and chain in place, which is much nicer and cleaner should you be on the side of the road. Most bikes don't seem to even have a center stand these days, I think in the days when more motorcycles were everyday transport such considerations were given more priority than in today's predominantly leisure use market. This video also reminds me why with the new motorcycles I have tubeless tires are a big plus IME.
Your right everything seems to be made basic and thats an extra. There way of making more money. Tubless yes on a road bike. But if you dent a rim on an adv bike you wont get a seal with tubeless. Thanks for your comments. Happy riding.👍👍
At 16:10 I blow up the tube to maybe 10 pounds so it is perfectly formed inside the tire and has no kinks then let the air out to almost zero again. While the tire is off give each spoke a ping with a screwdriver to see if you have any lose spokes. 23:44 you should use a proper torque wrench and tighten to the factory spec.
Have you never hurd of a torque wrench?. Place a bit of wood under the wheel before taking out spindle, & adjust chain on side stand (doing on the centre stand doesn't allow for the suspension travel. Your chain was well to tight.
Nevin van Dreumel Hi Nevin thanks buddy, this is the video of me trying them out. No laughing when i fall off..lol th-cam.com/video/nOSmswWXmsU/w-d-xo.html
I noticed you adjusted the chain on the centre stand..... was it too tight when on the side stand? I believe the 30mm slack is measured when on the side stand and unladen. Good tutorial.
Hi Buddy, yes side stand is advised, but whilst on the centre stand you can afford to go slightly tighter as when you put on load it will go a bit loser, not much in it though, depends on the length and centring of the swing arm,,, So i believe,,? Cheers
Its the other way around, the chain tensions more after leaving the centerstand, with zero load and the correct tension for sidestand the chain will get way too tight..
Mate I used to be a windex lube person when changing tyres until I used KY jelly! It's simply the very best lube for tyre changing, slippery as all fuck, mild on the hands, water soluble so wash up is easy, small tube goes a long, long way.
40 years of motorcycle riding and maintenance provides much experience and knowledge. The big "C" clamp will unseat both sides of the tire at the same time too. Stand the wheel vertical and turn the clamp next to the rim. Plus I used to be a Honda Power Products Dealer and marine mechanic. See my other comment about the tube, spokes and torque wrench ;)
I'd NEVER use that much soap mounting tires. A little in a bottle of spray water is all that's needed. Also WAY too much grease on spacers, will attract lots of dirt as it gets pushed to the outside when pushing into the seal.
Cheers Jerry I was bought up working on cars and bikes by my dad who was known for being heavy on the greasing of things.. Guess it runs in the blood. 👍👍
Hey Man, do yourself a favour and get yourself a motion pro bead buddy II - it acts like a 3rd set of hands for when you haven't got Jimmy around (Link : www.motionpro.com/product/08-0471) PS - your standard tubes are absolutely fine if you don't go off road and run lower pressures. Its when you go off road and reduce the tire pressure is when Heavy Duty tubes come in handy as they are much thicker and stiffer inside the tire .., and because of that they are more resistant to tube 'pinch flats' when riding with the reduced tire pressure . (which lowering the tire pressure gives the bike much better traction for riding in off road conditions). HD tubes are not any more resistant to a nail puncture though than what standard tubes are , they're only better for resistance in pinch flat when running low tire pressures - thats all ;)
Hopefully your still reading comments here. I'm thinking of getting the tractionator GPS. My bike is lowered and I just don't want the seat height to go up. Do you recall if the GPS was any taller than the tire removed, not considering wear on the old tire? I know the GPS has a deep tread design. The tire I'm removing has a similar tread as your old tire. Thanks
On most good tires there is a red or yellow dot that is placed on the lightest part of the tire so it can be lined up with the valve stem . In the video it doesn't look like you lined up the dot to the stem so that tire would be easy to balance . Is there a dot on the gps back or front tire ?

man you need to sort out the sound on these videos , it blew my socks off in the intro and had to turn it way down then couldnt hear you speaking and had to turn it back up , WOW !
@@ThisTall like i said above its great when there are shops around but out in the Australian Outback or bushland. You get a puncture you need to know how to take of the wheel / tyre and put back together.
@@dennisdeberry2582 sorry mate. if you face the arrow one way its a 50/50. Face the arrow the other way its a more rugged grip for off road makes it a 20/80. 20%on road 80% off road.
@@WulfOnTheRun Thanks I like that!!! Very cool. I myself do not need a 20/80 tire. I am still searching for a 70/30 tire. I did some real calculations and estimation before I even brought a bike as to how much I would be on road and off. But I do not think they make such a beast.

It’s an adventure bike, if you’re never in terrain where you’re ashamed you don’t know how to do this if you suddenly got a flat, you’ve bought the wrong bike.
Always best to familiarise yourself with the routine if going remote, can't be over-prepared. There are actually better levers available which interlock and work in a scissor manner to unlock the bead, called "Motion-Pro Bead Pro" levers (part #08-0519) and "Bikeservice make a set of three rim protectors (#BS9952) which work well too. Sorry but the hammer is too risky. Less skin off the knuckles if you remove the cush-drive sprocket housing.
I've never found a shop that doesn't need me to leave it there for hours, so I find doing anything myself is quicker, often than the travel time alone. And that's before the shop screws something up and you have more time wasted and frustration.

Hi, very informative. I tend to adjust my chain to within half a turn and then push the wheel upto the adjuster, then do the final turns. I find that it pulls the wheel uniformly and doesn't leave a small gap, hence straight.
You can easily pull that sprocket out of the hub.
Nothing like working around a dull saw blade.
It amazes me how manufacturers put little thought into the fact that tires need changing and punctures occur these days.

Tubless yes on a road bike.
But if you dent a rim on an adv bike you wont get a seal with tubeless.
Thanks for your comments.

@@WulfOnTheRun Yes tubes definitely still have a place for serious off road.
I’ve run these a few times. Great tyre. I ran ‘Mostly off road’ most of the time, it’s more like 50/50 really. Hope you enjoy them too 👍🏻

Amd tight enough is good enough.
Make a video to show how you do it..
Nice job. They look like great tires and looking forward to hearing how the tires perform. Ride safe, Cheers!

HAHA, great idea, and may come in Handy else where 😁😁
you can drill a pallet in its center to stall the wheel...more stability ^^
gregory lufin
Good idea. Plan for next time 👍👍
Very good job !!
I use a big "C" clamp to break the rim bead instead of maybe hitting the rim with a hammer.
Yes Sure. Cheers buddy. I hit the tyre but yes could possibly miss and hit the rim. C lamp good idea thanks

A cool trick...use your side stand to brake the bead
The side stand of another bike. Hard to use your own when the rear wheel is off 😂

Hi Brad yes it did feel a bit higher buddy. Im guessing it went up by about 15 / 20mm

No dots on the tyre.
But been a great tyre did around 14000ks on it.
How hard was this tire to mount compared to others? They say these are a BEAST to mount...thanks!
To be honest not that bad at all. I left it out in the sun for a couple of hours made it a little softer before I attacked it 👍👍
@@WulfOnTheRun I do the same thing!

I can see lots of marks around a nice new rim there. We're you not concerned about all that damage?
No mate bike is going to and has been dinked and dusted by many a rock and gravel. Enjoy
I was gonna say, he did it rather quick and easy without regard for the wheels. Half my struggle is not hacking up my wheels!
Dog pissin on my baby? BAD DOG! ZERO treats today you miserable mangy....grrrrr....lol
Why don't you set your chain with some weight on there?
Hey pal, do you need to do anything to the brake callipers when removing the rear wheel or just the through spindle….?
No I just tried them up out the way.
Mmm, no grease on the axle when you replaced it,??
man you need to sort out the sound on these videos , it blew my socks off in the intro and had to turn it way down then couldnt hear you speaking and had to turn it back up , WOW !
Yeh sorry bud. Been done on newer videos. 😞✊
Do you not measure chain slack with wheels on floor ?
this is what I pay the shop to do
Good when theres a shop but out in the middle of the Aussie bush or desserts. NO Shops there. So practice is good
$100CAD per tire to mount & balance at all my local shops.
@@ThisTall like i said above its great when there are shops around but out in the Australian Outback or bushland. You get a puncture you need to know how to take of the wheel / tyre and put back together.
Question. Aren’t these tires tubeless ??
Love to try them out but I also have an ATAS and it needs tubes.
Thank you
You can use tubeless tyres on tubed wheels with the innertubes Not a problem.
Just cant use tubed tyres on tubeless wheels. 👍👍
you balance the wheel at the auttoshop while inflating the tire or do you think the balance will be ok even though you placed a different tire?
There is a dot on the tyre that you line up with the valve. That should be balanced from manufacturer. They have been good no problems.
I was just wondering - when you change an ADV tire, do they need to be balanced?
Your supposed to but as long as you line up the valve to the innertube with the mark om the tyre. Its pretty close.
Im interested in the fuel tank you have attached to the pannier rack , where did you get it from and whats it called ?
Hi Nick i got it from ebay. Heres the link.
rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F302495851776
Is balancing tyres necessary?
Within reason yes I think so
@@WulfOnTheRun Recommended for any tyre you are going to run on the road. Off road hardly necessary unless speed is going to be high.
Your hands are like two hammers 😂😂😂
Haha Pedro more like a bunch of Sausages..lol
Thanks buddy
@@WulfOnTheRun strong sausages 😂😂😂😂
It say tubless on tyre sidewall are the ok to run with tube or is there a tt version?
Dupplo Fandanges
Hi bud its the same tyre for tubes or tubless. Its the wheels that are different. So yes you can use them 👍👍
Wulf On The Run usually there marked TL tubeless or TT tube type the the tube type are smooth in side the tubeless have the little ridges
Hi Bud, it says on the tyre next to where it says 50/50 tubeless then in brackets" for tube rims install tube,
What a ball ache, Id do it once at home so I knew the procedure when I got a flat, but thats it!
Gives me something to do...lol
Please show me the replacement of the front tyre.
MEANSTREAK _
Sorry buddy i didnt film it but its the same as the rear just easier as its a thinner tyre 👍
No one has uploaded the front tyre replacement.
Hey Andy how do you find them tyres in thinking of changing to them
Great mate ive done about 10k on them and still like new. I found thr front had a bit of vibration at low speed but soon settled in
Ok thanks ride safe
What kind of milage did you get out of that tire?
Had them on for aver 9000k now and still going strong
Wich assembly iron do you take?
Just a flat pair of levers
"Put them on the other way" ??? You mean inside out??
Haha for slicks yes..
@@WulfOnTheRun Seriously what do you mean but "the other way"
@@dennisdeberry2582 sorry mate. if you face the arrow one way its a 50/50.

Isn’t the gps a tubeless tyre?
Yes but rims are for tubes. Any tyre can have a tube 👍👍 but cant use a tubed tyre as tubeless
Thats not correct .
Bead should be off on both sides first, then remove tire.
