The guy knows what he's doing, that is quick for almost no tools :) The only thing you might want to change is using WD-40. It chemically attacks and destroys rubber, wouldn't want to spray it on the tire bead. Sunlight dish soap (water with alot of dish soap) and a small rag is the way too...

3 tire irons, or 2 irons and a tire spoon, is ideal. Think of it as they pay for themselves just by doing your own tires once. The first few sets of tires I did were more difficult, there's a couple tricks you pick up when doing it by hand that make it easier. I can go into detail but there's...

Riders Choice doesn't, they only change tires (I asked once). I don't know if Pro6 has them since they have a small front. I don't know if GP Bikes has 'em, but Royal Distributing for sure does. So does Kahuna Powersports in their accessory shop upstairs. Glen at Flying Motorcycles in...

The inside of the lip (except for kawasaki's) of the rim is curved and the tire bead has to move over that lip to pop into place. Before putting the tire on, lube both lips and the beads will pop into place easier. Soft Pirelli's I've pop into place at 10 psi. Harder tires for me usually...

I've changed alot of bike tires, first time I've seen it done with zip ties, too funny! Sport bike tires are soft, are relatively easy to do by hand or really easy with my Nomar machine. Cruiser tires are a bit stiffer, but I've gotten decent doing them with tire irons, don't want to pinch the...

I called up TMP yesterday about the track credit packages available. One person purchases them, they go under one person's name in their files. That person can call in and register any one with their credits. When asked, the lady I spoke too said that you have to register 4 days in advance...

I'll hopefully have them in a couple weeks, but I probably won't see about fitting them until the spring. Will post how it goes.

Yes, for 5 bucks a track day it doesn't matter. And I don't go out in rain either. The difference is that if you pre-register that has to be done a week in advance but if you have the credit you can register with that a couple days in advance. My experience this past summer, the weather...

Yes, it's only $5 less than a thursday, but only if you pre-register, compared to a thursday register at the track then you would be saving $25 times three. For the weekend, you save $25 over pre-register or $45 register at the track times three, so it isn't that bad.

If you get track credits you have to call a few days ahead of time, they have to pull your file and add you to the list of registered and they won't do it the morning of the track day. This past summer I wanted to make sure that I was going on a saturday, I called ahead of time, the person said...

I just ordered two sets of fairings for two different bikes from STG. Email them about the sale, call the rep that gets back to you. Was quick and easy. No sales tax, no shipping cost. With pickup cost in Niagara Falls and 13% duty at the border the total cost should be $900. So $450 for a...

I checked around a little bit, Sportbiketrackgear.com is willing to sell two different sets of fairings, the person mentioned just to email them before buying so they can call and make sure they can get the fairings for you. I'd be interested in splitting with someone if the price works to be...
