Wheel removal, tire swapping, and wheel balance are all covered in the generic instructions.
The owner’s manual should be consulted for specific details. This is because there are various methods for fastening motorcycle axles, brakes, and drive systems.
Advice: Spread out a clean rag next to the motorcycle, and as you remove each component, place it on the rag in the sequence in which you removed it.
First, raise the back wheel of the bike off the ground. You can accomplish this by investing in a center stand. Check that the bike is secure.
Remove the caliper bolts in Step 2 if your motorcycle has disk brakes and the calipers need to be removed. Hang the caliper loosely at your side.
Third, you should loosen the axle nut. But before you do so, mark the axle where the adjuster is so you can put it back where it started.
Move the wheel forward to the fourth position to get rid of the belt or chain.
5th Step: Untighten the nut on the motorcycle’s axle. Pinch bolts may be used to provide supplemental support for some axles. Just take care of that if that’s the case.
The sixth step is to remove the motorcycle’s axle.
Seventh, remember to maintain all the bearings, spacers, nuts, and washers in a single, secure area. They must be reinstalled in identical positions on the motorcycle to prevent the wheel from jiggling after replacing it.
The front wheel of a motorbike is even simpler to remove than the back.
As a first step, unplug the speedometer cable.
Step 2: Take the forks apart at the bottom to access the axle.
After you’ve completed step 2, the wheel should fall to the floor quickly. The axle of some motorcycles can be removed entirely by sliding it out after the axel bolts have been removed.
TIRE REMOVAL
Take the wheel off the bike. Remove the core from the valve stem to deflate the tire. Remove the tire from the rim by separating the bead with a bead breaker or adhesive clamp. Put the wheel in a convenient location, like a tire changing stand or a 20-gallon drum. By squeezing the two beads on the other side of the tire together and forcing them down into the rim’s thinnest area, you can sling the tire as far to one side as possible. Force the bead over the lip of the vessel.
To do this, place one tire iron beneath the bead three or four inches from the first, on the “loose” side of the tire, and roll the dot over the edge of the rim. If you have a third iron, set it three to four inches from the second iron and roll the bead over the rim, which requires you to remove the first iron and move it to the other side of the double iron. Don’t stop until you’ve gone around the tire twice. To remove the second bead from the rim, repeat the previous steps. If there is an inner tube, take it out. Take off the valve stem on the tire if it is tubeless. Make that the hole in the valve stem and the bead are clean. Remove any oxidation or old rubber from the area where the bead seals. Scrub the lip’s inner surface. Check the wheel’s bearings and other moving parts. It would be best if you inspected the wheel and rotor run-in now. Replace the tube or the valve stem, depending on the tire you’re dealing with. Spoke wheels require a new rim strip, and you should inspect the nipples for any protruding spokes.
HOW TO CHANGE A TIRE
Tire mounting fluid should be applied to both beads. Please do not use soap when mounting. Find out which way around the tire it should go. Locate the tire’s directional arrows to determine the correct rotation. If you are not using a tubeless tire, ensure the valve stem is in place. Look for the yellow circle on the tire. Here you’ll find the tire’s lowest weight. The yellow dot on the valve stem should be in the correct position. The valve stem should be the starting point for pushing the bottom bead over the wheel. Gently pry the last bead over the rim. Tires that require tubes should have their lines put in. Fill the box with just a tiny bit of air. Check for convoluted tubing. Simply reverse the procedure, beginning with the opposite bead 180 degrees from the valve stem.
Please avoid pinching the tube with your fingers. Wrap the tire with the bead strap and tighten it to distribute the bead. The tire’s bead must seat entirely before you may add air while releasing the beaded belt. To be safe, aim for around 45 PSI. Make that the space between the locator line on the tire and the rim is consistent over the whole tire by measuring the distance between the two. Use a soapy water solution to make sure the seal is secure.
