great video with some good tips! im waiting till oil change to do my tires but had to watch some videos for tips of course! did you mention the size of the tire by chance? or did i just miss it lol. i bought a 2.75 trials off amazon but im thinking the talaria can hold a 3.5 so may throw the 2.75 on the front instead.
I didn't mention, I got the 2.75 19" for front and rear... I wanted to stay as close to the stock tires as I could with running stock power... didn't want to lose power to a bunch more rotational weight!
I’m looking for “how to remove talaria front wheel” and i only find an 18 minute video of a tyre change and bet my chances. Got what i need within the first minute. Now that deserves a like and sub!❤
I dont even own a Talaria and former modded surron owner, but your toturials are the best w tips that only come w experience. I never had any riding experience before owning a surron and these tutorials would have saved me so much time. My Ultra bee should be here in about a month and these videos are gonna help alot. Cheers! And keep riding and keep uploading quality contents dude!
@@freerfixedit I’m living vicariously through you so I would really appreciate one of your next videos being a scenic/speed ride somewhere that would be awesome
Super great video! (Lots of very specific and helpful practical details.) Thank you so much! This video is especially helpful for me and my son (and probably many others), as we do not have a shop nearby who will service Talaria bikes. So, thank you again. You're really helping people.

If you have a few clamps at the end of process, they can be used to hold opposite side of tire in the "Drop Center", will make it easier to get last part of tire stretched onto the rim I've found! Great Video! Thank You : )
Gotta teach people about the drop center and it'll make their lives a lot easier. When it gets tough at the end, just push down on the opposite end. That's where those rim clamps come in handy.
Good tutorial. I use electrical contact cleaner as a form of quick dry lube to get the tire on easier. Works great and doesn't leave any residue after a minute or so. Way less cursing and sweating since I started using that...
I was looking for replacement tires for my talaria what difference between shinko 241 and shinko 244 for street use. I could find a noticiable difference
From experience keep track of the O rings that goes between the wheel spacers and the wheel. Got to get me some baby powder never thought of that I used to use a bit of French chalk but baby powder is a lot handier. Another good vid mate.
This is a great video. Thank you! I would love to hear your thoughts on how to pick the best tires for your riding style. It would be cool to see a video where you go over different types of tires and how to select the best one for each application, like racing, dirt trail riding and rocky hard surface trails.
Gonna be using this soon sadly. Just got my sting r and got to ride it for about 5 hours and then to work and noticed my tire was flat. Have a leak at the valve stem.
Make sure you have at LEAST 15 psi in the tire. Since these don’t have a rim lock, low psi and the amount of torque can rip the valve stem right off if the tire spins on the rim
mine are the same way, you could definitely do it, and it would save you some time before youd need a new set, only reason I havent done it yet is cause its a pain lol
personally I like 15, can go higher for street, lower for dirt, but 15 is the sweet spot for me, I dont like going much above cause you feel every crack and bump in the road
@@herosliveforever3134 sorry to hear that, more lube and baby powder the better. And make sure you’re using spoons and nothing sharp. Can also go around with your hands once the tire is seated and push down all the way around on both sides to try to ensure the tube isn’t resting on the rim anywhere or stuck between the tire and the rim. But in reality man, happens to the best of us.
Thanks for the advice bro. I bought the same spoons you did. Just a learning process I guess hahahha. I will give it another whirl I appreciate your video and advice thanks man
I realize this is a year old video, but the link you have for the tire tubes…Will they fit the front and rear wheel for a talaria mx3? It has two sizes, 80/100-19 & 90/100-19, I believe. Will these fit without issue?
I am just guessing are these tires wider then the stock ones? And is the Amazon link for the rear tire? Do you happen to have one for the front tire? I am new to having a talaria. Thanks for the video
@@rscvisuals no problem, happy to help. Thanks for watching the vids and don’t hesitate to drop a comment if you ever have any questions. Thanks again and I hope you get back riding soon! 🤙🏽
I got mine from Lunacycle.com Great people over there, highly recommend! It took me about 11 days from order to delivery, but they are backordered now and shipping as fast as they can. Luna is probably your best bet for getting one ASAP, and Eric is pretty active in the Talaria Sting R USA owners group on FB. He updates what order dates they've caught up to with shipping daily! Hope this helps!
I’m guessing there’s no need to balance these wheels? I do for my motorcycle and sometimes wonder if it’s really necessary. Great video! Thanks for making it. Just got my Sting R last week!
Appreciate the feedback, and to answer your question, I don't balance the wheels on the talaria or my mx bikes, nor have I heard of anyone balancing their talaria wheels... I think it plays a bigger factor on higher speed motorcycles on the street and such... couldn't hurt, but not necessary in my opinion... hope that helps
Hey man, this video was awesome. Got my shinko's on 1st try without any issues using the tire spoons that you recommended. What tire pressure do you like to run for street/ and some trails
Street is up to you, I run a little less to make wheelies easier, but 15 psi has been the sweet spot for me on and off road with these. Dropped them to 10-11 for the pit bike race which was in sand, but I do recommend losing the lock nut on the shrader valve, or atleast backing it off the rim and snugging it against the valve cap. Will prevent tube from ripping at the stem in the event the tire does slightly spin on the rim. But I’ve been running 15 for months on and off road and haven’t had a single issue. *knocks on wood
I am an old guy and taking the rear wheel off and getting it back on is really hard for me. I don't have anyone to help me so getting that brake bracket on and the wheel lined up takes me forever.
Try silicone lube when you get the chance, I've used this for changing countless ice racing tires and will never go back. I learned this trick from Jeff Fredette (FRPoffroad).
I’ll have to give it a shot! I rode to the bank and the gas station today. So far I like them better for the street. Going to put them thru their paces tomorrow and try to get that video out Friday. Weather permitting!
fyi all tires have a dot painted on the side wall that your supposed to line up the stem with the dot, that's where the manufacture suggest to line up you don't have to if you don't want to..

@@freerfixedit good idea! They're cheaper too so I think I'll snag another 2.75 as well!
@@TheSlayin yeah I found mine on revzilla.com for $45 a piece
@@TheSlayin you don't want the 3.5 even the 2.75 241 tire is 2lbs heavier than stock and it's noticeable the 3.5 would be ridiculously heavy.
@@MotoAlias i ended up with the 2.5 and it's definitely plenty! Thank you!

Since you put a bigger tire on the front wheel did you have to get a bigger tube for the front as well?
No, I reused my stock tubes. Still no issues

Haha I know what ya mean! I'll have to give it a shot!
I was looking for replacement tires for my talaria what difference between shinko 241 and shinko 244 for street use. I could find a noticiable difference
They’re both dual sport tires, just different tread patterns
From experience keep track of the O rings that goes between the wheel spacers and the wheel. Got to get me some baby powder never thought of that I used to use a bit of French chalk but baby powder is a lot handier. Another good vid mate.
Will do! Appreciate the tip!
Be sure to get talcum powder and not the corn starch type powder.
What size is it 2.75-19 or 3.50-19
Good to know the tube is heavy duty, it worked for me at 13 psi maybe this can take 8 psi in the dirt?
Idk about that low, but I had 10-11 in them at the sand track last week
@@freerfixedit alight im trying 11psi, just got back from prosser hill ohv 4 hours ago at 13 psi was nice.

Should tire rubbers be rotated? My front is practically new and my rear has worn, but not bald yet. Thanks Freer
mine are the same way, you could definitely do it, and it would save you some time before youd need a new set, only reason I havent done it yet is cause its a pain lol
@@freerfixedit ty for the quick response. I watched this video today as a refresher for fixing a flat
What's a good tire pressure to run after your bead is set.
personally I like 15, can go higher for street, lower for dirt, but 15 is the sweet spot for me, I dont like going much above cause you feel every crack and bump in the road
Hey, i followed your advice and watched your video as I changed my tires. I got two pinch flats, how do I avoid that?
@@herosliveforever3134 sorry to hear that, more lube and baby powder the better. And make sure you’re using spoons and nothing sharp.

I don’t/ wouldn’t
I am just guessing are these tires wider then the stock ones? And is the Amazon link for the rear tire? Do you happen to have one for the front tire? I am new to having a talaria. Thanks for the video
Slightly wider and taller than the stock tires. I’m running the 19x2.75 on the front and rear
Are you using the same size Shinko’s for the front and rear?
Yep. 2.75x19 front and rear
Thank you so much bro. I really appreciate the indepth tutorial.
Just glad to help! Thanks for the feedback! 🤝
Is it normal, my talaria doesn't have pinch bolts, just a through axle
@@herosliveforever3134 I believe they changed the design on newer models.
so will 2.75-19 fit the stock tires front and rear?
Yeah, that’s what I’m running

@@rscvisuals no problem, happy to help. Thanks for watching the vids and don’t hesitate to drop a comment if you ever have any questions. Thanks again and I hope you get back riding soon! 🤙🏽
is it the same for the back ? or like how do you do it with the sprocket?
@@Grants1010 yeah same thing. Just watch your knuckles
Also what size 2.75-19 or 3.50-19 tires
2.75x19 front and rear. 3.5 doesn’t fit

you can also slide the spoon all the way around
Very good and detailed video. Thank you.

I tryed to do it but my axle is just stuck in place after nonstop hitting adn I even took the bolts off. What do I do!!!!!!!???
Front or back wheel?

Great vid thanks man!
fyi all tires have a dot painted on the side wall that your supposed to line up the stem with the dot, that's where the manufacture suggest to line up you don't have to if you don't want to..
Did not know that! Thanks for the tip!
That’s supposed to be the lightest part of the tire and helps with balancing the wheel
Awesome dude
Thank you! 🤝
Why did I never think of duct taping my spoons...that is so clever and obvious, it would have saved me so much time and annoyance
I did it in hopes of not scratching the rim. It worked decent for a bit, but they started to get stuck when the tire got pretty tight at the end.
Dope vid
Appreciate it! 🤝
❤ i would pay you to do mine bro ❤
Would happily do it if I could, thanks for watching! 🤝
Just put a rim lock to get your mind in ease
OK if you have a baby
