Dirt Bike Tire Change

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

I'd say we're all experts now at changing tires, we have watched about 100 videos now of Jay changing tires.

[@Sterlingforsyth]

And I still watch every one he posts 😂

[@ShadyOne9]

And yet it kicks my ass all over the garage every damn time 😂😂

@@coloradodirtbike5930 I got it , just wasn’t as easy as he makes it look. Thanks for your kind words

[@mschumaker1]

I've watched all these videos a dozen times. And everytime a new one comes out, I watch it.

[@SamChou]

"One of my favorite things to do". Those are some bold words, given that tire changes are by far my least favorite things to do. But after watching you change a tire, I can see why. Looks like a good tire stand is crucial to making a tire change go smoothly! I've been missing that part, and the dedicated tire lube. Thanks for the tips.

[@SpencerThomason]

Thanks!

[@Daniel456324]

Jay makes this look so easy, to the average backyard mechanic there gong to spend the majority of the day cursing, slamming, banging just to get the tire dismounted. 😂

[@richardpiotrowski1043]

Every time I change a tire (most often repairing a flat) without watching one of your Tire Change videos, I end up pinching the friggen tube...I could save myselt the twenty, or so, bucks, each time, if I just took the time to watch before putting the tire on the rack... Your method makes it so easy and almost inpossible to damage the tube, and more importantly, the rim...Thanks.

[@chihuahuaverde425]

Thanks Jay. Can always use more tire changing tips.

[@rz912]

Excellent, thank you. This video got me through the process and I learned a lot

[@Chillerguy48]

My tire changing game changed when I got Murphy's tire soap and long curved spoons! I find mousses to be easier then tubes also.

[@lestaylor8529]

Great vids, you make tire changing look so easy.

[@user-se7vt5ow4e]

Great video with some good ideas on tire changing. I use the plastic rim protectors to prevent the tire tool from dinging the rim.

[@brutus6328]

You know Jay has serious connections when he get's tires with the yellow Dunlop writing!!! For those who don't know, it's literally impossible to get that yellow lettering! LOL

[@chrisvillarreal2752]

Get the yellow marker paint and never worry about it again lol

[@racingjunk7024]

You can find the stickers online usually 25 for a set of 6

[@lindley345]

Oh really? I bought a dirt bike the other day that has yellow Dunlop writing in them.

[@brutus6328]

@@lindley345 Fantastic! You're lucky.

[@lindley345]

@brutus6328 he did tell me you can only get them from motorcross races, but I didn't think they were that hard to get.

[@Thisguyhere1828]

My son had a flat on the rear tire. Never heard of your channel but looked up how to remount the tire. Of course I rednecked it with flathead screwdrivers, but, it’s what I had! Your video made this a breeze!! Thank you for your content!🎉😅

[@human1513]

Your best tire change video ever for us less experienced. Thanx. Thanx big time for slowing things down. I use the Honda type rubbers (by Zeta) on the valve stems on my KTM. I think they help to keep dirt out and some water also but let the valve stem & tube move.

[@SSRacing66]

You can tell Jay's a master at this when he says "It's my favorite thing to do!" 😉

[@perrygibbons1816]

I think it's all he knows how to do

[@stephenmudry7826]

You didn't do it right. You didn't say any cuss words

[@vntgstks]

Seriously, I had to sawsall the back tire tonight, then couldn’t get the new one on. Complete Fail.

[@TheGrobe]

@@vntgstks i’m guessing you didn’t use three spoons or bars? That’s like the only way to do it for real.

[@Bikebros27]

I have just got my 2 boys KTM’s all your videos are great. And will certainly help me maintain them. ❤

[@lesserclaypool]

One of my most hated things to do, and Jay loves it 😂😂

[@1017cutlass]

Next one do it with a 12 or 14 inch rear bc I’ll tell yah I loathe changing the pitbike tires

[@jasonlanders9289]

Hey on your tire stand, what do you do on a mini wheel/tire where the center post won’t fit through the wheel bearings? Thanks

[@dirtbiketv1]

On our build instructions we talk about that- Jay has an extra stand with a smaller stem-- some guys make theirs so the stem changes out to different sizes--

[@spencerclark2269]

Never enough tire changes in my opinion!

[@kajlo307]

Thank you everything i can learn so much from this channel, helping me lot❤

[@philgoogle1535]

Poetry in motion👍

[@YZXRYDR]

That was a fantastic demonstration of tube-type tire mounting. Would you use the same stand for mounting a tire with a bib mousse tube? Or, would you recommend a changer with more features?

[@regioncycle3119]

Awesome vid... Surprised he didn't mention anything about the yellow dunlop dot

[@MikeyP82sf]

Thanks Jay!

[@FNQMX]

Best tip for tyres is pay someone else to change them . Just please and thank you involved , no sweating or swearing needed.

[@andyhauser2733]

Hey Jay, Great video. Could you send me the plans for the tire changing stand? Thanks

[@dirtbiketv1]

Email Jay Directly off contacts on website or Instagram --

[@BruceSwallow-li9nm]

I'd like to see you do this with a Bridgestone ultra heavy duty tube

[@OffroadTakeover8]

Changing my own tire has saved me so much money and time

[@EarthSurferUSA]

That depends on how much your time is worth, (and knuckles). Once you know your local dealer has a power tire changer, (making it easy for both of us), and know they do a good job, (I know I am going to scratch that anodized rim), you will never go back. :)

[@vintagemxer9165]

You actually made it look enjoyable

[@cooganbeggs4942]

Ive done this several times now and it never seems to get easier. The last 2 I did I pinched both tubes. Bought new tubes and got the tires installed, went to pump it up and realised the valve stem was pushed inside the tyre, had to remove it all again, i swear I nearly cried 😅

[@jezuaccc]

Guys like me needed to see this I’m a new dog to the Mx world awesome video

[@stephen122193]

What about the yellow dot? Does it go on valve stem or rim lock?

[@Olli315]

nice job, i change a lot of car tires, streetbike tires, but not many offroadtires. My 19 and 21 are not a big problem, but with your video it will get easier... But the 12 and 14 from the 65ccm from my son a break my hands.... Did you do it by those little tires it the same whay? thanks...great video

[@SamEdwardsTV]

Having watched the video I still have no idea I have a rubber bead that needs to go in I got a lock nut when does that go on this video does show any of that

[@miro_s]

Thanks. How do you use the two different sides of the spoons? Spoon up to remove the tire and spoon down to put it on?

[@paulmcmullen914]

Legend.

Awesome! Thank you again.

I just bought my son a CRF150F used. I’m completely new. If I’m nervous about doing this, what’s a reasonable cost to have this done at a shop?

[@AlexKost-tq6bj]

I remember reading that the tube valve nut is meant to be removed and only used on the outside and not tight against the rim. Thoughts?

[@tutsudo3260]

I can tell you if you over tighten them it will break the valve stem off!

[@tonsta1703]

how about showing the removal of a really dry, crusty old tyre instead of a nice new soft one? because thats what most of us are dealing with. but love the technique thank you

[@nevillemartelock6617]

What make of tire stand are you using or is it a home made stand?

[@jimf4891]

If Jay can teach me how to change a tire, anyone can learn.

[@JohnBracher-e4n]

where can i find those Gloves and Spoons ? thanks ...

[@goldmx1229]

What if the bead isn’t perfect? What about if didn’t came out just in one small part? Does that affect something important or is just aesthetic?

[@SamMedve-p8c]

What do I do if when I fill it up it doesn’t bead up evenly?

[@3090scott]

Camera moved away underneath what side bottom of tire ?

[@juliodelvalle4296]

How about vide just changing the tube? I always have problems getting the stem in when just changing a tube without removing the tire.

[@zantharzello2999]

Not related. To the vid inner tubes suck I keep blowing tube's. The valve stem breaks off would you suggest a pool noodle alone Or with a rim loc I ride Enduro my Pic logo is my bike. Trying to take the safe and cheap way out. And I live in south america. Not an abundance of good parts here. Any help would be great. Super thx I watch all your vids.

Yes-- email Jay directly -- go to his site or any of his links-- www.dirtbiketv1.com

[@lcinotti13]

I think he's a master in that but also i think he have a special tire from dunlop, it's feel so soft. The same tire from a normal dealer it's too strong

[@hessxpress3016]

tire must be made of bubble gum because my crusty old hard tire isnt comin off the rim.

[@terrancepack3211]

I just had to hit it with angle grinder😂😂

[@romellojames6690]

There’s no way you matched the tire to the rim lol. My tire doesn’t nearly sink in that easily

[@AusEnduroChannel]

Can u do one with a mitas stone king? Bastard of a tyre to fit

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Heeeeeey! You have done this before! I can tell.

[@carsonpoole5873]

NICE!!! I’m jealous

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Nope, I am have bloodied enough knuckles in the past, and had much better luck not pinching a tube with big flat head screw drivers, (never pinch) than I did spoons, (always pinch), but scratched the rim to heck (not anodized rims back then, so did not show much). My local dealer has a power tire changer, and for now, I could not be more happy about changing a tire. :)

[@ianharrison5263]

how about a video on how to change an E07 Dakar in the middle of the Sahara ..... with a spoon😭

[@themuz3]

not sure he mentioned the direction of the spoons

[@thexrs7062]

I use a vise grip 😂as a buddy i always scratch rims

[@user-pl3oc8lh1h]

Surely someone can come up with tyre changing spoons that are made with a strong enough material not to snap or break while at the same time doesn't scratch the shit out of the rims, some of us care about our rims looking decent and don't want to purposefully scrath them while mot riding ...

[@dirtbiketv1]

Yes tons of them-- email us if an issue-- but on our main page look for Tire change playlist

[@whiskey_throttle_racing7461]

Who can actually push a tire 60% on? I have never once had even a used tire go on more than about 30%

[@shawnxxvii]

He doesn't mention it, but seems like you have to make sure only the bottom bead goes inside the rim, not both at the same time. New tires are pinched close together, but he was installing a used tire that was a bit spread open. Also putting a bit more air in the tube could help separate the beads to slide just one in at a time. I had the same problem as you, i thought "how the hell can it go in 60%?!"

[@GNX157]

Maybe it’s a different camera or camera crew, but the lighting or exposure is all off. The video looks terrible now compared to your other videos in terms of visual qualities.

[@brutus6328]

Noticed that too, I thought it was my monitor at first!

[@mikevm1981]

An Australian KZbinr uses silicone spray vs baby powder - swear never has pinch flats - agree? Thoughts?

[@aaron___6014]

That tire looks so soft. My 4ply southwicks were a battle.

[@cliffanderson7544]

I sit too! LOL....

[@EarthSurferUSA]

That's not the MX14 that is on my bike.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

You might have the connections. Is that a "special tire" right now? Not often we mount a used tire. :)

[@rlspring4811]

7 hours in and tired not still on. Easier just to buy a new rim with a tire on it

[@will_short14MX]

good video, but that chain is way to tight

[@seymourb5824]

It pisses me off how easy you do this. I feel like you microwaved the tire before putting it on

[@microsoft790]

Now do it on a mini tire. 19s are easy

Why don’t you turn your iso on the camera down some more holy crap I can barely see anything lol

That second car commercial from Uber is a piece of shit

[@dcxplant]

Without a tire stand, and hundreds of tire change experience this is a difficult job. Take it in and pay $50 bucks to have it mounted. This dude and all the other yt guys changing tires like an F1 team and lots of video editing make it look easy. It’s not. It’s frustrating af. Take it in to a shop.

[@666dynomax]

It’s not hard my friend. A bucket three spoons easy. I can do it on side of trail. Never worry $50. I have 4 bikes.

[@666dynomax]

Wait sorry 5.

[@zackiaryruddick701]

Its 2024 people you don't need to change your own tyer its cost so little to get it done at a bike shop and i never seen abike shop without a fancy tyer changer that won't scratch your rim , do you change your cars tyres yourself? Why not

[@onthethrottle7104]

We get your point but sometimes the shop is closed and you still want to go ride so it's good to have all the tire changing stuff and be able to do it right. I also change a lot of tires to test different types, so I don't want to run down to the shop to drop it off and then go pick it up. I can just change my own tire and be done with it.

[@DevDog67]

Well the local shop is borderline highway robbery at $100. And it's an hour drive. So no thanks.
