Very honest and distinctive video! Very helpfull. Thanks lot. I made the same experience working recently with Rabaconda after having changed many tires with another tire changer. It‘s a very good tool - it‘s not cheap but woth every penny. Thanks again.

Love my Rabaconda. It has allowed me to become self-sufficient as far as tire changes go (and I don't have to deal with shoddy/expensive/potentially dangerous dealership work).

Good vid. I was able to mount the Dunlop Trailmax Missions on my Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro (cross spoked rims) without too much struggle. But I had the same issue with the duck head rolling towards the spokes when levering the tire iron in place. After 16k miles, I just removed the tire, using the Rabaconda, and that was a struggle on a hole other level. The bead broke without much issue, but getting the duck head to function was a real bear. Took me 50 minutes to get the tire off and had to modify the tire iron to do so. Mind you, I've done 5 other sets of tires with the machine and it has worked quite well, but the Dunlops seem to be right at its limit.

Great video, thanks, Mine just arrived and I'm excited to figure it out. I have GS with cross spoked wheels and ordered the wider duckhead specific to that wheel. I think that would solve your issue too. Sorry if you already figured that out. :)

Superfluous piece of kit.

I’ve only changed 1 set of motorcycle tires myself on my old ninja, but I just did it with those two stick things whatever they’re called, and it took a little effort but it was fine. Compared to that, this actually looked way harder. But maybe there’s a big difference with really hard tires like that.

Great video. I might look into buying one of those.

The tire changing kit comes with a second duckhead specifically for the wire wheel rims

I'd want a darned sturdy tire on that bike too, for any bike for that matter. And no matter what size of Dual Sport I ride I'm going to want an 80% - 20% Street oriented tire but that's a personal preference. Rider intent may vary ? Yes, it will but I'm liking the tire changer. It's something I'd want if I can afford it? peace man

Anything less than 1 hour is pretty good, in my humble opinion. Compare the Time & what the labor would be to change these at a reputable place & you'll be able to justify the cost of the Tire Changer. It's pricey but needed only for those who do change tires fairly often. I've got their website book marked, it's a cool device, for sure!

I bought this trye changer.. and I found a problem.. when having to put on the bottom bead, to need to use the duck head, that the tyre becomes skewed to the point where the upper bead then rubs against the metal square tube and can cut away some of the rubber bead material, being that the pipe is sharp to rubber. It's something to watch out for. My solve was to 3D print a plug, that has the outer surface to be slightly rounded and a little over sized of the pipe, to be out off the pipe to stop scrapping the bead, and I just tape it down to not move.. a rubber plug/cap would probably be better. Yes it's green too.
