Excellent Tire Changing Videos

I change my motorcycle tires using the tools and techniques demonstrated by Jay Clarke in the following videos. I have posted several different videos since each video is filmed from a slightly different angle, and viewing each of the videos reinforces the method and logic behind the different steps involved.

For those lacking the proper tools, the zip tie technique may be an option.

I found another tire changing video by Jay Clark. I like watching his method from different camera angles, et cetera.

You're welcome.

I use Jay Clark's methods to change my motorcycle tires, and they work very well. If you use the proper techniques and the proper tools, changing tires is almost fun.
