Dude watching you break both beads and just pull the tire off in 3 minutes, new one back on in less than 5 left me speechless. I never thought of using a centerstand to break bead, learn something new every day. Thanks

Manly shit

This gives me LOTS of hope when I start camping and backroading on my '09 GS! Thank you so much! Great looking GS Adventure, the only bike I'd willingly trade my GS for. Cant beat that tank size :)

Always a pleasure to watch someone efficiently get the job done. Thanks for the lesson.

Probably the best tire change video I've seen. I especially like the center stand bead break.

12 years later ....preciate your video..thank you for the lesson

Thanks Bill ! You have no idea how much we all need to see this ...

Just used your technique and it went almost as easy as your instructions! I've always depended on others to mount my tires but now I have the power! ;) Cheers!

I just bought a 2009 R1200 GSA, I NEED TO LEARN. You just showed me a lot right here. Great video! Appreciate the effort you put into it.

Thanks for posting this! I asked my BMW shop how to do this and they wouldn't even entertain the idea of me trying this myself. I'm looking for your other video of how to change the front tire now. Looks like that silicone really helps you to break the bead if you put it on when you install a new tire.

thank you for showing this, i have the tire checker i ordered inside the tire and I'm not sure how not to mess up, but the changing has helped a lot, i just bought fully loaded R1200GS

Great job explaining the process man, being a tire tech and having to fight tires even with a machine, makes this process a hole lot easier on trail..it's a good process not just for enduro but for offload bikes too. Loved your bead breaker btw...lol

This video is much appreciated, plan on getting a GS in the near future.

Excellent video, thanks a lot.. Just bought my first BMW R1200GS and I like to do things myself and save that extra money for the fun stuff !

I agree, I have changed many tires in my cycling career and have NEVER had a tire come off that easy even with lube. It's always a battle.

Great video and thanks for that great tip to break the bead. Can't wait to have a go. Read and enjoyed ARM for the first time recently. It was bought for me by a pal whilst recovering from a broken leg loosing grip riding my GS through a ford!!!! Great idea, could'a been good fun but ended up in an ambulance then Macclesfield Hospital UK. Great treatment and thanks to the staff there I'm almost ready to ride again.

Thanks a lot for the vid. It was very helpful as I had never changed any large MC tire. Cheers!

The softer the surface you're riding on, the softer the tire you want. Sand is very soft, so a lower pressure is called for. I just avoid riding in sand with my bike when I can. Good video, you made that look easy.

I’m trading in my R nine T for a GS1200. As I venture into the world of adventure bikes and touring, it reassuring to know that there is quality content like this out there. Great video.

Amazing job. Really appreciated the safety steps as well. Thx

Excellent tutorial on rear tire replacement!

Great tip on the factory BMW bead breaker. A head slapper moment for me. Nice job.

Thanks Bill, this is such a well explained video! Much appreciated..

Makes it look so easy ….i also want to try this now !!!!! Good video ….

Great video Bill.

Thanks man. Directly on the point.

Thanks for the video. I am looking forward to the video on changing a front tire.

Thanks Bill for this course! Very clear. Even with my two "left hands", I'm sure I'm gonna work this easy out! ;)

Thank you, good luck on your adventuretrips !!!

Thanks, you're method even works with Metzeler Tourance (2 years on rim with no lube)which is a difficult tyre to remove.

Bill, nicely done. Keep sharing the vids brother.

Thanks for the lesson, I hope next time it goes that easy for me. Kudos

Awesome Video man - Thanks for Sharing this technique

super Idee mit dem Ständer die Decke von der Felge zu drücken. Muss man erstmal drauf kommen. 👍

Ja, finde ich auch, genial. Reifen eben mal so mit Bordmitteln gewechselt, toll. Für die Tour im Outback sehr wichtig wenn man weiter kommt. Wuchten kann wohl entfallen, oder? Oder gibts da auch Tricks für unterwegs?

Fantastic instructional! Many thanks. Hitting it up tomorrow morn. Looking very forward to your front tire instructional too. Cheers, CLJ

Great video Bill. Very useful, tks!

Excellent vid, thank you! Your comment about the use of lube is REALLY important. I find that some sort of lube makes all the difference between easy and "gee am I going to get hurt doing this." Your suggestion for the silicone lube is quite good since it doesn't dry out like soapy type products, and that matters right from the very first time you install a new tire as it tends to keep that bead slippery for a long, long time. The zip tie trick really helps if the bead won't pop in.

Man that was awesome!! Thks from Texas

love this video. its almost perfect. please do more adventure based videos.

great illustrative video

Nice job! Compliments from Italy

amazing.. many thanks for taking the time. personally learnt alot .. again thanks

Thanks my friend for the video. Very good. Congratulations from Brazil.

Brilliant, never thought to use the side stand to break the bead. That will save me time in the future!

Thanks for the video, Please make some more! You got the touch!! Obrigado!!

Thanks for this video! very illustrative

Great job. Very nice video. Thank you

Good video! No time wasted with waffle and bull crap, just straight forward direction on how to change the tire.

Great video!

Great video, I will be changing my next tire, real soon!

Put this video on and bingo Came up with a great idea Thank You

I like this video and would like to see you change the front tire.

Super video , looking forward to the video of the front tire ..:-))

Love the centre stand technique

Thanks, this was a great help !

Good instructions for GS drivers and a cool american voice to hear... 😉👌

Good Job Sir!, Thanks much for posting.

All done: all tips are really appreciated. My bead didn't pop as easily as yours (or maybe I didn't dare put enough uhhhhmmmpfff into it at the beginning: a little soapy water around the rim seemed to help. Same for putting on the new tire: slipped on like Snow White's Alpinestars with soapy lube. Cheers!

Such an awesome channel...needs more videos:(

This was a very helpful video! I need to master these skills for future off-road adventures. When will you do a similar video for a front tire change on a GS 1200? Thanks!

Nice video ! thanks for sharing ! Ali from Morocco

amigo es excelente lo que nos enseñas. en Colombia la mayoría de personas pagan para que les reparen la moto y nadie le enseña a uno a mantenerlas en buen estado.

Excellent video, thanks a lot!

That was excellent. Thank you.

This is on the "to do" list next tire change. This skill is invaluable, especially in the outback! Thanks for the great instructional video!

Great video thank you very helpful…

Nice job, thank you !

Great video - I thought it was particularly crazy that you were in Logan, Utah - where I live!

You make it look really easy ;)

Thanks a lot, Your vid really helped me do it myself. Although the tyres on my S10 come off and on a lot less easy than you make it look in the video. :D But maybe the K60 Scout is a more rigid tyre, I don't know.

Inspired me, got a flat and the shops won’t touch them anymore just sell you a new tire. I’ve done two now. Let,s see a front tire done so quickly and easy.

Thanks for the video. Is it necessary to torque the bolts when you put it back on.

Nice. Question-do you adjust tire marker (usually colored spot) to valve stem and what about balancing?

You’re really good!

great video. Thanks!!!

Good info!! Thanks for posting :)

Thanks From Ireland.

Very good video, cheers

Thanks Bill

How the rear wheel bolts on is to sick!

excellent video.

Damitte man ...great vid!..you make it seame so easy...(and also make me feel kinde of a amature,...)😂😊 greatings from belgium ...grts steve .👍

You make it look easy!!!

Thanks, great video.

cool video - great solutions

pretty slick !

Awesome video

Bill makes that look easy.

I'm doing this now with Anakee 3s. Got the front done now working on the rear. I'm having a hard time popping the bead. My bike fell over like 3 times already.

You sure know how to maintenance Your own bike, good job ....

How do you balance a motorad read tire? The hole is like 62mm and 72mm. There's no bolt or common rod to rotate it about for balancing.

Contact Marc Parnes products he makes adapters and balancers. I bought the adapter is very well made.

Tried this one with my gs. Had the whole bike leaned on the sidewall of the tire, still couldnt break the bead. Did have the bike fall over on me though when the tire popped out from under the stand on one attempt so that was fun. Was really hoping it would be this easy

a good no fuss video nice one steve

Great lesson lesson. Just curious what torque spec that was on the rear wheel .

Yes, sometimes seating the bead is a pain, but we always manage somehow.

Great video, when will you do one for the front tyre ?

great video

Excellent video. How do you balance the tire?

So I was ready to give up and then I watched your video and just decided to get a little bit more aggressive than whammo. The tire went on really 5:10 easy. Amazing what you can do once you think you can get it done instead of think you can’t get it done

Great video. What brand/ tool did you use to pop out the tires? And how did you balance the tire? I have heard balancing is no longer required. Finally, how do you know the bead is up again? Want to do it myself first time.

Thanks great vid
