I would have used a big screw driver for the "third tire tool". The tip about the heavy part of the rim, and the light part of the tire was new to me - thank you for telling about that. The tip about the starting fluid was good too - didn't know that either. Thanks for making the video.

After watching you , the $40 my dealer charges looks like a bargain. But you did a fine job.

Great video. However you forgot the most important part of the process - lubricating the bead! Spraying some Windex or soapy water mix on the rim and bead will make the whole process MUCH easier! The tire is very sticky and does not want to pass over the super smooth rim surface. By lubricating (both when putting on and taking off) you make the job much easier. Try it next time.

Bravo. Mounting tires always feels more like a wrestling match than mechanics work. You beat it into submission.

You need to break the beads on both sides of the tire. Also using a little lubricant such as dishwasher soap will bale removing and installing the tire a lot easier.

As BAXROK2 said: LUBE THE BEAD.Not only will it make getting the tire on the rim much easier it will let the bead pop at a lower, safer pressure. Put the tires in the sun for an hour or 2 before you try to mount them. Easier if the tire is warm. Also when you are prying the tire onto the rim a few small blocks of wood to push the tire bead down into the drop center of the rim to allow you to pull the tire up to the other side of the rim. Also when you are prying the tire bead onto the rim take smaller "bites" with your irons. Lift smaller sections of tire onto the rim. This will make the job much easier and lessen the risk of tearing the tire or even breaking the wire bead in the tire. I have demounted and mounted tires on an 1800 Goldwing with less effort than you used on that 250.

I got a problem with my ninja 250 rear tire. So new tire is on the rim. But the bead(is the inner tire lip) is bot overlap iwth the rim. Looks like the tire is bit small. But i got the spec of the tire right. 130/80/16. I used my tire iron to move out the bead, no nothing works. So whats going on there. What did i missed.
