Motorcycle tire changing in Murphy, NC - RideWNC.com

Thanks for the video, you made it clear and to the point- which is exactly what I like. :) Videos thst take 20 minutes to talk about a procedure which only takes 5 minutes are totally unnecessary lol.

[@marcwcassidy]

I've done both wheels on my Vstrom before so was familiar with the process somewhat. I have an SV650 now. This was a great reminder though so thanks much!

[@boost331]

is it just me or did u tighten the left side and loosen the right side of the chain adjusters?

[@RideWNC]

Please watch this video again and again to make sure. I need the money.

[@jeremiahflynn1691]

Thank you so much! You've really helped me out!

[@Blimpdawg]

Thx man. Both vids really helped.

[@agraniteman1]

THank you jamers really needed this

[@DasCayman]

Great work, thank you!

[@Syreinsv]

How do you slide the Axel bolt out so easily mine will not budge I got the nut off but I can’t get it through

[@RideWNC]

The last guy did not grease the axle. That always sucks! Put the axle nut back on untill the treads almost come through the nut. Take a rubber dead blow hammer and knock the axle loose. Maybe WD-40 before you hit it. Use a light coat of marine grease before install.

@@RideWNC thank you! Hammer worked, got that tire off! My first time ever!! this video helped me so much, you rock! :)

Has anybody ever seen a rear Sv650 brake carrier tapped into the rear chain adjuster to help with wheel changes??

[@RideWNC]

The carrier and caliper needs to slide off with the wheel so the wheel doesn't get scratched during removal.

[@cmsmwoo1]

MikeE RideWNC thanks but it's a racing thing. Scratches are essential;-)

[@samboles3670]

Superb

[@almightiej]

Do you know the torque spec for placing the axle nut back on?

[@RideWNC]

I don't give out torque specs in case your bike is different from the one in the video. It will be in your owners manual.

[@zlim751]

Do you have to loosen the chain tensioners to get the wheel out?

[@RideWNC]

No.

[@almightiej]

What type of grease should i use for the spacer and axle?

[@RideWNC]

Marine Grease is best. It repels water.

[@billymarz9146]

1/2” drive or 3/8 with the 24mm socket ?

[@RideWNC]

24mm is big and a lot of torque on it... Go with 1/2 drive.

[@billymarz9146]

@@RideWNC okay will do thanks man

[@almightiej]

Can you do this without the bike stand you have? maybe with a 2x4 and two jack stands?

[@RideWNC]

I wouldn't. I don't like picking bikes up off of the ground. Right tools for the job.
