If you are staring at a motorcycle and considering how to replace a motorcycle tire, this article may help you. We will introduce how to remove and replace a motorcycle in detail.
First, put the front and rear wheels of your motorcycle with the parking frame, remove the wheels and use a special nozzle tool to unscrew the valve in the air nozzle. After the tire is completely deflated, place the tire on other old tires or worktable. No matter what support you use, please make sure that when you are removing the fetal lip, don't grind your disc underneath, because the disc is easy to deform and expensive.
No matter what tools you have, it takes a little bit of force to peel the fetal lip from the hub. Separating the hub from the tire is like peeling off the flesh because the design of the fetal lip has a certain strength. It is recommended to use the knee to press the entire whee. This is much easier. You must put the tire removal rod between the hub and the tire. As long as one edge is opened, the rest of the part is much easier to open.
After the first fetal lip is opened, you have already completed half of it. The next thing is to dig up the other side of the fetal lip and put it outside the hub. Lubrication is important here, which makes this a lot easier, but do not lubricate with something that cannot be dried. A spray bottle with dishwashing detergent can help. Spray enough liquid on the outside of the hub and the outer edge of the fetal lip. If you are afraid of the hub damage, you can buy the protective strip for the wheel protection, or prepare a towel to pad under the tire removal rod.
Pick up your tire removal rod, open the fetal lip about three centimeters of the hub, move it three to five centimeters at a time, slowly open it until the entire fetal lip is removed from the hub, then turn the hub around, for some tires, you can use your hands to get the other side's fetal lips out of the hub, but most of them still need a tire removal rod to help, and then remember to wash the hub before assembling the tire!
Before assembling the tire, please confirm the rolling direction of the tires. There will be an arrow marked on the tires to indicate the rolling direction. Just like some front brake discs with arrows. Before assembling the tires, apply the lubricating grease to the tires to facilitate the assembly of the tires. Remember to align the tire's paint mark, that is the lightest place of the tire, just to align with the gas nozzle, but some tires do not have this mark, then you don't need to pay attention to it!
You can insert it with your hand, but sometimes you need a tire removal rod to help you. The second fetal lip is the most headache, because when you put it in the first half, it will get tighter and feel like that the pressure of an elephant is still not necessarily good, but in fact it is methodic. Use your knees or an assistant to help press the tires that have already entered the wheel, so that the last part of the fetal lip can be easily pressed into the hub!
After assembling the tire, pump the tire first so that the tire and the hub can be tightly combined. Usually, you will hear the sound of two shots, indicating that the tire have been combined with the hub, and then the valves of the nozzles are assembled again. The air gun of the tire pressure gauge hits the tire to the correct recommended tire pressure, and you're done.
It's not difficult to change your tires by yourself. Once you have the right motorcycle tools, it's quite easy to change tires. You need to have tire clips, a set of tire removal rod, dishwashing detergents or some lubricants, and motorcycle stand.
