Great video!!! Because it was short & summarized this video helped me decide to do it myself in my friend’s shop where he was a tire mounting machine that came from a motorcycle garage that closed several years ago. Avons look great too!!!
Dude. Sweet. Other videos sucked. One was 27 minutes of talking. Another was laying the bike on its side. No thanks. This was short and to the point. Thanks
To each their own........I will continue to lay padding down and gently lay Ruby on her side and swap out my tire and stand her back up. It really isn't as hard as a people think it is. The bike is designed to be able to lay on the crash bars without damage and anyone that can't raise their bike back up from this position really has no business getting on it. Even my tiny little wife can lift our GL 1800 back up. You don't have to be muscle bound to do it. Always put it into gear before starting this process. Practice makes perfect 👌
If I lay mine down I’ve got the rear wheel off and got the air out of it before someone doing it this way has the access panel removed. But to each their own. I understand some people don’t want to lay their bike down.
I watched a senior citizen lay his goldwing down on the right side, go on the other side and engage the center stand to elevate the read tire, change the tire, go to the opposite side and raise it back up again after closing the center stand and opening the kick stand. Allows for greater access to the lug nuts and tire. Putting padding down for the chrome guards puts one at ease. For those who've been trained on setting the wing up after you lay it down, it's not a big deal, IF YOU DON'T HAVE A BAD BACK OR LEG PROBLEMS.
Cavemen got bred out of existence for a reason Bubba! We use tools, and find solutions to a silly problem IE LAYING ANY BIKE ON ITS SIDE IS A SILLY THING TO DO.
Thank goodness I found this video, I was told I needed to lay the bike on it's side and I wasn't so sure that was necessary. You just proved it's definitely not, at least on my 02' bike anyway!
Thanks for the great video! I run a small shop. A guy from my church asked me to change the tire on his and had never done a gold wing before I thought it was going to be a hassle. Glad I found your video!
I really like your simple approach, a lot of the videos that you watch, there’s too much talking… You kept it simple, and clean… For that I certainly appreciate it. Thanks for putting it up man. Keep posting my friend.
No no no. The nimrod I just watched says your suppose to lay the bike over on its side. Hahahahaha. I’ve only changed 3 or 4 thousands of them but seems like you may be doing it right. But still. Have you considered throwing it over in its side. Hahahaha.
Best to do it the right way as you demonstrated. It’s only a pain if you have a trailer hitch, otherwise…… easy peasy! Beautiful bike by the way. I love the color.
Well you learn something new every day ,,,so thank you for showing us all how to remove the rear wheel properly. I fully agree with you about all the crap videos about rear wheel removal . Keep up the great work ,,,PS ..my bike is the same year and same colour as yous and was imported to Ireland from the USA ...Charlie form Ireland

Dude. Sweet. Other videos sucked. One was 27 minutes of talking. Another was laying the bike on its side. No thanks. This was short and to the point. Thanks

AWESOME, THANKS
Yeah... it's simple if you don't have a trailer hitch ; )

WoW. I might be about to buy my first goldwing 😅 and I’m glad I came across your video ❤

I was just about to drop the bike to the right like the other guy said .. this is a lot easier ...wow !! Thanks so much !
BTW thanks!
To the point and correct. HAHA Have you seen all these guys on youtube laying it on the side or jacking it up?
Best way
Excellent instructional video!
this is not changing a rear tire. it's removing a rear wheel
No no no. The nimrod I just watched says your suppose to lay the bike over on its side. Hahahahaha. I’ve only changed 3 or 4 thousands of them but seems like you may be doing it right. But still. Have you considered throwing it over in its side. Hahahaha.
Thank you. Short sweet, no unnecessary commentary.
What all year models can be changed that way?
2001 to 2010
Thank you very much for making this video, Johnny! Well done. Extremely helpful!
Clever ..
That’s the best way I’ve seen ! laying on its side to do it to much work picking it back up
Best to do it the right way as you demonstrated. It’s only a pain if you have a trailer hitch, otherwise…… easy peasy! Beautiful bike by the way. I love the color.
Great video! Thank you for posting this.
