Nice to see a guy do this a bit goofy, like the rest of us, and not edited to make you look super slick. I change tyres with levers, lube, a bit of swearing and usually grazed knuckles. That looks a good system. I'm more an off road rider and use the mousse system with Rabaconda.
Just takes some practice is all. I use spoons and a spray bottle of soapy water. I use a clamp adapted to my drill to break the bead. It took me a little while to figue out how to make the job easy but with practice it has become a pretty easy job. I do like that Rabaconda though! Kind of pricey for me but I have four motorcycles in the garage and it might make it easier for a 71 year old to get the job done faster. Thanks for the video and I found it enjoyable to see an someone learning as you went along. I am the same way!
Just like removing the tire, you have to push on the opposite side. You should also get a clamp and put it where you remove the tire iron. It will keep the tire from walking.
Have you tried it on the car tire for the scooter? Make sure to let us know what you think about the darkside. I just finished 4 consecutive ironbutts on my Burgman. 4100 miles in four days

Thanks for showing how a normal person does it. Makes me want to buy it now.

I noticed that you don't talk about balancing the wheel. Is this needed on a scooter?
Might as well go Darkside with wear like that, obviously mostly freeway miles...
What's the spindle diameter? There's only one size?
