2009 Kawasaki Versys Rear Wheel Removal and Install Tire Change

[@Everything-Street-Outlaws-NPK]

Getting ready to do mine. Is the 08 same as the 09? Also I noticed you didn’t do any type of chain tension adjusting procedure. How do you gauge how far back the put the rim on? In other words how do you adjust the tension on the chain? Great videos btw!

I do tires. I do not adjust chains on most bikes unless they come in and the chain is hanging on the bike. At 20.00 per wheel, adjusting the chain is not going to happen.

@@RideWNC thanks for the reply. So after you have reinstalled this guys rear tire he has to take it somewhere to get the chain tension adjusted?

@@Everything-Street-Outlaws-NPK Typically, when a bike comes to me, they are well maintained. I don't usually do tires for new riders or inexperienced riders. I am not a shop or dealership. I can pick and choose whose bike I work on. I have been know to tell entitled owners to go away. I have also told owners to never come back. Notice I said owners not riders. I am always willing to help a rider. There is a huge difference between an owner and a motorcycle rider. I don't work on bikes because I need money. It is just a hobby.

@@RideWNC nice. So basically when you put a wheel back on you just put the slider back into the position it was in when you took it apart.
