tyre change.

I would like to thank all those who responded to my query as how to seat a reluctant bead. (including the cautions...90 lbs seemed a bit excessive...though my heavy duty mechanic friend just sneered when I told him of the cautions! ..Tough guy, tough machinery and all that.) I did try the WD 40 trick and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the suggestion. However I still can't quite envision mounting the beads satisfactorily out there in the bush, in the rain, with a little hand pump, or worse still.. a few CO2 catridges. Maybe the "real men" just squeeze the tyre in their bare hands and pop the bead back on! I find this group rather unique in that it definitely attrats a more mature (in years) motorcyclist. I'm past 50 and I know I am not alone. Cheers to all and ride SAFELY Martin
