No-Mar tire changer. I opted for the receiver hitch mount only because my garage has no available floor space. Once I get rid of one more motorcycle I am going to order the floor mount stand. Too many motorcycles in the way right now. I know tough problem to have. I sold the wifes '08 Ninja 250 last weekend, it had 116 miles on it after 15 months. She was not riding it so it had to go. The dirtbike is next to go. Weather has been terrible this weekend so I have not had a chance to throw it on the truck receiver and see how it works. I have a trackday right around the corner in March so I need to mount up new tires on the 600 and the B-King needs a new rear,,,again
I have wanted one for some time now but something always came up and sidetracked me, not this time. They have some good deals right now. Free shipping is good plus the ultimate packages you get the balancer. I know it will probably not work as easy as their videos show it to.

be great if you had a bud or two who would toss you a few bucks to help when they needed a change.
$700 is a bit much my way considering it takes me years to wear out a tire
For me it will pay off in no time. I spent/wasted over $200 in mounting fees last year at the track alone. I also had a front rotor bent by a moron at a local dealership while having tires installed on my Bandit 1250.
Roy, I have been looking at those things for years now and they are the Cadillac of tire machines for sure......damned fine piece of equipment.
From now on, you can change all of my tires.
Me too I have looked at them for years now. I always wandered by their diplays at the races and stared in amazement.
Well I could bring it to the track with this setup. Not too sure how well that would go over with the tire vendors on site. Plus it could grow legs and walk away if ya know what I mean.
Well the weather cleared a bit today so I took it out and placed it in the trucks receiver mount. I did not use it just wanted to look at it. It is too cold for changing a tire right now plus I am in a lazy mood today.
It is going to work just fine. It was a little low due to the truck being on the drive way and the garage floor is higher. I can solve that by doing it on the driveway or backing the truck into the garage more. I am happy with it. Thought I would never say this but I am looking forward to mounting a tire with it. According to them it can also be used on my motard wheels without the optional dirtbike wheel clamp set that they sell.

Well, I was kinda hoping that you might swing by my house and do it here.

Congrats! Money well sent. I've had mine for about four years, awesome tool. " Hell" I can scratch my wheels just as well as the dealership, but won't feel so bad. Just won't have to pay them anymore. I love it.
I've always prefered the hunter machines over the coats because they have the air over hydro rollers to break the bead loose. If you cant use this machine with only two finger you are a retard. it'll even pick the wheel and tire up off of the floor for you. but it has the leg eater shovel should you absolutely need it.

My friend has one just like that but he bolted it down to the floor. I have to say its a very sweet tool. Watch the video over and over again and you'll get really good soon.

I have been watching their videos for about a year now It comes with a DVD which I watched yesterday. The women changing the tire even makes it look easy.
