Motorcycle tire changing machine! - Big Rick - 02-15-2006

Just like the title says. I want to buy a motorcycle tire changing machine. USED because it will be cheaper, and working also! Please let me know. thank you!

look at them on ebay... that's you're best bet, i looked at it a while back and they're pretty expensive.

www.gregsmithequipment.com

I bought one there..

like $1200 brand new shipped

and you do not need the motorcycle adapters

those are for skinny harley rims with huge hubs

I think Harbor Freight has them too. the cheap ones.

Harbor Freight has anything from a $1300 semi automatic one (http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=90589) to the $50 one that everyone gets (http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=34542).

Just a suggestion, if you get the $50 it works fine as long as you have it bolted to a sturdy surface, like your driveway or garage floor.

damn, that $50 one seems like the ticket for me... that would pay for itself after a few tire changes.

WOW, that's a LOT of money and it's not REALLY portable (for the $1200 one)...

we do our own tires... with two flathead screwdrivers. and no we do not mangle the rims. we break the bead with a ramp. and we can do it anywhere. sometimes after i blow a tire at a show... the crowd will ask if i have another rim so i can ride more, so i bet them that i can change the tire right in front of them inless than 10 mintues (that is takin rim off, changing tire, inflating tire and reinstalling rim)... i haven't lost yet! LOL some people get REALLY mad at their local shop after seeing me do that

I wouldn't use the screwdrivers, but I can get the tire on and off pretty quick too.

I would look for a coats 220 or a no-mar tire changer.
