CHANGE A MOTORCYCLE TIRE WHILE TRAVELLING
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 сер 2024
- Changing the tire or fixing the tube of your motorcycle is a great skill to have specially if you're riding in remote locations where access to help may be limited.
When I first attempted to change a tire several years ago the job seemed closed to impossible but the good news is that with practice you can develop the skills to do it relatively quick.
The tire shown on this video is the Pirelli MT16.
The rear tire DUNLOP D606 is definitely a much tougher tire to change but the idea remains all the same.
If you have any tips and questions just drop a comment and I'll get back to you.

That was an immaculately detailed how to with well thought out practicle hints, in fact the best I've seen. The only thing I would do differently is after tightening the axle I wouldn't tighten the two axled clamp bolts. I would sit on the bike holding the front brake and put all my weight up and down on the forks so they align, then tighten the two clamp bolts. That helps eliminate or minimise fork stitchen. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for such a great comment!! It really means a lot to me!
You’re totally right about compressing the front suspension before tightening the pinch bolts. This is the 100% correct way of doing to ensure proper alignment. I even have a video on the channel showing exactly that!
I must say that on the 2 times I had to change a tube in the middle of a trip I ended up not doing it 😂. I just wanted to get the job done asap and jump into riding again.
Cheers mate! Always great to see you here on the channel!
Lots of tire changing videos on UA-cam some good some not so good. Your detail is excellent and will certainly help the community. Well done sir
Thank you so much for this comment! It means a lot to me!
I’ve been changing tire for a long time but was unsure if I should even publish this video! Glad I did
I feel confident and not intimidated about changing tires now just by watching your videos. Thanks!
Thanks, Boris!! Definitely recommend practicing a few times at home! Once you get the hang of it it gets relatively easy to do it!
Cheers mate! Nice weekend to you
I've seen many methods of re-installing a tire...but this is one of the best!
Thank you for making these videos.
Thanks, man!! Appreciate the comment
Best tire changing video so far. Detailed and on point. Thank you from a beginner rider.
Wow, thanks! Means a lot to me to know the video could help another fellow rider!!
Definitely recommend practicing at home before leaving for a long trip 😎
Your videos are excellent! Appreciate you taking the time to teach and post these on UA-cam.
My pleasure! Thanks for the comment!
That was an excellent tire changing video, equal to what was my all time favorite tire changing video. The tip where you backed off one tire lever to create space for the second one was gold. I'd never seen that before. Frankly you deserve way more subs. Your content is excellent! Thank you for sharing.
Stoked to hear that you could get some a tip from the video!
Maybe one day I get to 10k subs 😎 but even if not, that’s ok. I really enjoy creating these videos for the motorcycling community!
Thanks again Michael for the supportive comment. Means a lot to me!
Most excellent video. My tip is that if you are lifting the back wheel, turn the handlebars to the left and use something to close the front brake. This could be a zip tie, but I keep one velcro strap tied on the fork tube for this purpose. The tire spoons with the box end wrench side are such great tools for traveling. Great job!
Thanks, Alfonso!! Great tip for lifting the back wheel!
I think we do it the same way. I showed it in here.
HOW TO USE A MOTORCYCLE TRAIL JACK
ua-cam.com/video/XccC81CWsuQ/v-deo.html
You have to push opposite down the tire with one foot to use the space of the inside rim and so no effort needed. this is the basic of tire change. use tire spoons with a bit of angle to prevent any pinch.
Never past vertical position with the spoons for same reason
Degrip oil spray is the best to break the bead.
Spray against the tire side and rim , wait a couple of minutes et voilà ;)
Putting back tire, best is still dish wash soap diluted that you already have as traveler
As we are used to say, if you make any effort, you are wrong, stop and think !
don't forget to lube tube with silicon and put two rim locks;
as they are puy opposite you have the bonus to get a better balanced wheel
Even full flat you will be able to still ride a lot when shit hits the fan. no tube or tire rotating.
keep the good work; useful for many riders !
Fantastic comment!!! Thanks for sharing your experience in here!!
All the best, mate! Ride safe
As I mentioned both my son and I appreciated your video on the Rabaconda but until we are ready to spend the money on such a device this video instruction was perfect. I am proud to say my son followed your example and changed both the front and rear tires of his CRF300L. Having a Rabaconda is definitely a luxury, however knowing the basics, although slower and more time consuming is good for setting a good foundation. Thank you for the video.
As always a pleasure to read your comment! I have 2 small daughters and I hope one day to enjoy my motorcycle hobby with them just like you are doing it with your son.
Well done to your son! A lot of people struggle and end up giving up on changing tires using tire levers.
It’s a great skill to learn and it only gets easier with practice!
My regards to your son!
@@RoiaMoto My daughter rides as well. She stays on the pavement with her KTM Duke 390. She rides constantly.
Nice one, man! You got the whole family into riding. Whenever I can I get my daughters to engage with me when I'm around the motorcycle. I hope one day to be able to ride with them.
Just got done putting on some Kenda K270s, just wanted to say thank you for making such easy to follow videos on the CRF300L. Me and my dad are complete noobs, so you're a huge help. Looking forward to purchasing your tool roll when they roll out!
What a pleasure to read your comment! Great satisfaction you and your dad are finding the videos useful!! Wish you both many adventures and good times while riding!
Amazing that you are interest in our tool kit!! Sorry it’s taking so long but everything is custom made so it takes a bit of extra time ☺️. We start shipping in about one month!
Thank you very much for the detailed instructions. They help even a beginner and take away the fear of a flat tire somewhere far away from the nearest workshop
Very welcome! Best way is to practice at home before going on a trip!
Cheers
Great video! Only thing missing to my opinion was the pumping the front brakes in the end ❤️
Thanks a lot, Henriette!
You’re totally right! Missed showing that in the end.
Are you still travelling a lot?
@@RoiaMoto Heading to Romania in August and then back to North Africa over the winter. Danish winters are 😑🌊💨🌧️❄️🥶🤧
@ForTheLoveOfWheels amazing stuff!! What a life 🤩! Wish you a safe ride and lots of enjoyment!
Very well explained! Concise, short, straight to the point with all important info and tips. Probably the best explanation for in field tire fix. Maybe do one for tire patching? I know many people struggle to patch a tire successfully.
THANK YOU! Love the suggestion for a video on tire patching! I’ll definitely make another video about that.
Thanks alot!
Always good content with structure!
Greetings from black forest!
Thanks a lot for the supportive comment!
Greetings from Tyrol!
Insanely valuable video! Many thanks for your work!
Hey Philipp! Thanks so much for the supportive comment and glad to hear you’ve found it useful!
Cheers mate
Brilliant video, thank you! The tool roll looks really good. I'm going to use this video to help practice a tire change before I leave!
THANK YOU! We put a lot of effort into it and can’t wait to have it ready for shipping. Production is taking longer than expected due to so many differences pockets and zippers we’ve added but we are super proud of it!
Cheers mate
Ride safe
@@RoiaMoto don't worry about how long it takes, it's worth it. It's the extra attention to detail that makes it worth it.
Subscribed! Thank you for this detailed video!
Awesome, thank you!
Exzellent Video.
Thank you!
Great Video!! Perfectly detailed!! Thanks!! Hope i never have to use that skill😅
Thanks , mate!!
I promise you that it gets much easier over time! I still remember my first tire change. Absolutely brutal to get the tire mounted. Take a Saturday or Sunday and practice for a few hours. It will become relatively easy after that.
Ride safe!
Excellent video! My only comment or question would be that I think, coming from a racing bicycle background, that it wouldn’t be necessary to remove the tire completely. Instead, just remove one side, which would be the brake disk side. Then either replace or repair the tube.
Hey Harry
Both methods work and it’s matter of preference.
I tried both methods but I still prefer to get the tire completely off, fit the tube inside the tire and finally remount it to the rim.
My preference comes primarily from 3 reasons.
1 - it gives me some peace of mind to slightly inflate the tube in advance then perfectly fit it inside the tyre.
If I remove only one side of the tire, I’m pushing the tube inside the tire without really seeing if it’s all bunched up.
2 - if using heavy duty tubes (4mm), I definitely prefer getting the tire off. Specially for the front wheel, I find to be a higher effort trying to squeeze the thicker tube inside the tire if only one side is off.
3 - I find it easier to position the valve stem into the hole. I know some guys even carry an additional tool, I think is called valve stem puller, to facilite this process. But by removing the tire completely off I can clearly see where hole is for the valve stem.
I wouldn’t say there is right or wrong in here. That’s just the way I like to do it but both will work.
Cheers!
Thanks for the tips!
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
Excellent tutorial. Do you ever just only take off one side of the tire of the rim to remove the damaged tube and install the new tube vs. completely removing the tire from the rim?
Thanks!

Truly the best and clearest tutorial on changing tires! Thank you! One question: what rear tire do you use? Did you find the original rear tire sizes for the Crf300L?
Thanks a lot, Michele!! Appreciate the support.
I’m using the Dunlop D606 120/90-18.
I couldn’t find a suitable tire for my needs with exactly the original size.
@@RoiaMoto Thank you very much!! I enjoyed all your videos about the little Honda
Great video, looking forward to the toolroll aswel. I’m curious about the tools you use what are these lightweight ratchet and wenches?
Thanks, Joost!
I’m already working on a video about the tool kit and I’ll share a PDF free of charge with all the tools specifically picked for the CRF300L ;)

Great videos. I've a question for you. Do you know where I can get an adaptor type plug for the accessory outlet so that I can plug in more than one accessory eg a USB and maybe the ARN remote.
Thanks.
Thanks!!
Unfortunately I have done that yet. If I find you and I’ll let you know.
Hello, another great video. I wanted to buy your tool roll, but I haven't been notified yet. When will they be delivered?
Thanks! Glad to hear you enjoyed the video!
The production batch should be finished this week and it will take about 4-5 weeks to get it shipping.
Sorry it takes so long but we spent too much time tuning in every detail to have a product we are proud of!
Great video, can you tell me the brand of the tool roll please.
Hi Mark
I designed this tool roll by myself! A lot of effort put into it and we are super proud of it.
You can check all of its details in here:

Where did you get that trail jack 2:57
Hi Travis,
You can get it from Rolling Mavericks
@@RoiaMoto thanks!! 🙏
Hello . Thank you . Without rim lock would you start near valve?
Hey mate,
Without the rim lock I would start about a “full hand” (20cm) away from the valve.
Without the rim lock, generally should be easier and it will not matter that much. I just don’t remember starting right on top of the valve stem
Send me a link where I can see how you change the REAR tire yourself? 🙂
Challenged accepted 😎.
I just changed my rear tyre yesterday. DUNLOP D606.
I didn’t record it this time but I’ll do it next time and publish a video about it.
Thanks for the suggestion!
@@RoiaMoto I hope soon Honda will finally make a crf with a little more serious power........then I will become a customer. 🙂
I love this little bike but I’m not a skilled off-road rider. For the time being the weight and power are perfect for me.
I can totally see how more experienced riders would appreciate more power.
Which bike are you riding now?
@@RoiaMoto I spent 20 years on hard enduro.....and I don't see the CRF300 as a hard enduro, but from the plane you can see that it has too soft amortization and that it lacks approx. 10 horses.
I am currently working in Asia so 6 months ago I sold my CRF 1000. I tried the new Transalp 750 but as a former TA 600 and TA 650 owner, the 750 model disappointed me!
I'm looking for a bike a 3in1 and if Honda doesn't make something stronger......I'll probably buy a GS1200 while I wait. I am not afraid of the weight of 1200 because I have experience and I know that I can pass most of the heavier macadams.
The new KTM 390 is great in terms of driving characteristics, but unfortunately it will be unreliable like all others KTMs, especially those produced in India!
I used to have a Suzuki DR350 and I wouldn't go back to it 🙂
Do you have a solution for me? 🙂
Great stuff! 20 years of enduro riding!!! I have a long way to get there.
Very hard. I personally like the Husq 701 enduro. Relatively light and powerful. The drawback I see in it is the reliability. I don’t think the 701 is going to be close to reliable as the Japanese motorcycles.
With your experience what about the Tenere 700?
Don’t do it this way! You don’t need to remove the entire tire to swap the tube out on the trail. Just work on one side of the tire. Complete waste of time and energy. Watch other videos and practice at home. You will not be able to do it the first time on the trail.
Hi mate,
Thanks for sharing your input and how you like to do it.
I have already tried the way you described but it’s not for me.
I rather remove the tyre, fit the tube inside the tyre, fit the valve stem into the hole using my hands and then continue with the mounting of the tyre.
I’m sure someone else will also prefer a different method different to yours or mine.
Every rider got find what works best for them.
Cheers
Ride safe!
@@RoiaMoto I agree with you. It can be a pain in the ass to insert the tube with the tire already half on the rim. I like doing it the way you did it by pulling the stem out of the tire and inserting it first. Easy peasy!
