I know this is the Harbor Freight Tire Changer thread..........but, I just ordered the NoMar "CycleHill" tire changer with the balancer, lube, weights, etc. I live 26 miles from NoMar and they will install tires for free to demonstrate the product. So, I am heading over there tomorrow with my '07 BMW R1200GS Adventure and have them install/demonstrate/teach me the proper procedure with a new rear tire. One good thing about the Adventure is the single sided swingarm........it only takes 5 minutes to remove the rear wheel/tire.
I'll update everyone on how easy the CycleHill tire changer is to use when it arrives and is mounted. I've got several friends on the tire change waiting list.
