    i paid $110 at Razees, with my own tires with the wheels still on the bike. that included the disposal fee. took about 1 hour because they were still working on another bike.

    Re: Tire change pricing you pay?

    I need to change the tires on my fzr and I was thinking about doing them in-house (boy did that sound official).

    I have a plan but it's got holes...


    Bead breaker: 2x4 anchored to the wall studs trick

    Tire iron: rim savers + 3 tire irons from motorcyclesuperstore

    Valve stems: two new ones + a changing tool (is it possible to order the wrong size valve stem?)

    Lube: I've seen people use windex for lube on youtube videos. Is this going to be enough to set the bead without leaks? Seems sketchy at best to me.

    Bead setting: 22 gal home air compressor

    Balancing: dynabeads or a static balancing setup. dynabeads are easy but i can't really decide if I trust them or not...

    I'd stay away from them. Tried them myself in some 33" truck tires. Followed all of the manufacturer's instructions... they just plain didn't work.

    Thanks Mark, I will hit you up and come down with beer next time!

    I think I will start saving up for ht eJr-Pro one so I can do my truck tires also!
    Seems reasonable for another $200.

    Which one did you get mark the smaller version it looks like, which is perfect for Motorcycles and most common car & truck tires, just not my tires!

    You'll have to give me a lesson!
