Thanks

7 times I can count...
3 of them on my own... 2 rears , 1 front.. never had to do
it on my own on the XTR..
A second bike is handy... use there side stand on the tyre
to brake the bead... put the side stand on the tyre.. them rock the bike across so it whole weight is on the side stand... pop goes the bead...

I am bloody good at changeing tyres... getting the wheels
off & back on gives me more drama's...
