Also make sure you clean the bead seat on the rim, I have seen so many tires that have slow leaks because when they get them changed (at shops) they take the old tire off, put the new tire on and out the door, very common, at least in my neck of the woods.

Great points Doc. Glad you touched on wheel alignment. The Clymer service manual for Harley touring bikes calls for checking wheel alignment as part of its wheel installation procedure, but then never says how to do it - of course, because there isn't a separate procedure for that. With the cam system, once you get your belt deflection correct, your wheel is already aligned.
@Chance-ry1hq5 жыл бұрын
Pretty funny, enough info to scare you into taking it into the Harley dealership and paying their astronomical prices, but not enough info to actually do it yourself. If you are not comfortable changing your own tires, find yourself a small mom and pop shop to do it. They will charge you 1/4 the price of a Harley dealership, and probably do a better job.

Check the balance on the empty rim with the tire valve installed. Mark the heavy spot on the rim. Mount the tire with the dot lined up with the mark on the rim. You'll use less weights to balance it.

Does anyone know if there should be a tube on a 2002 softail standard spoked front wheel or why my spokes are leaking
@LowCountryHarleyDavidson Жыл бұрын
Welcome to the world of Harley. As you learn with this new purchase there are things to learn as you own. First I am surprised the people who mounted the new tires did not explain. For your knowledge. Yes the tire on the outside has printed Tubeless. This tire can fit multiple Harleys with different wheels. The key word for you is “ Spoke Wheels”. There was a model later that used a wide rim strip to cover the spokes on a curved rim. But unfortunately for you, your Spoke wheels should have a new rim strip and new inner tube. It is possible the installer used your original inner tube and pinched it during assembly. Lesson learned…..Doc

Another nice info video Doc. The reference to the dot on the tire I feel is good and bad as someone else noted. I would would index the "wheel" fist, put it on the wheel balancer before mounting the tire to find the high and low spot on the wheel. After that mount the tire and see how much weight is needed. The tech might need to move the tire around the rim to find the spot where the least amount of weight is needed but the final instal will look better. Yea I know it will cost some extra $$$$ but it's worth it, I think.
@bryanmontgomery40502 жыл бұрын
I always check the wheel first then mark the heaviest spot with tape then put tire dot at that spot, this puts the heaviest part of the wheel and the lightest part of the tire in the same place and generally requires much less weight, in this application I would use .50 ounces on each side on the wheel rather than all on one side. If it’s a spoke wheel I prefer spoke weights the best.
