(kinda forgot about the tube lol) even still i should show a little air leak around the rim no????
ahhh what the hell its a reaqson to take something apart...
now to look around the garage to find something to hold the bike up...
ohhh ill take a look at the tires you mentioned

I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend not attempting a tire repair without three GOOD tire spoons AND watching the tire repair/replacement video on this forum....seriously. Now if you have replaced a mc tire before disregard this post....but I'm betting no.
Look at a lot of tires....I like the metzeler for my adv...but there are a lot of great tires out there that may be better for you.

and miss out on all the cussing, tool throwing, bike kicking, sweat dripping off the nose, short temperdness at the wife and kids, head scratching, grezzy hand, tool loosing, bike falling over and scratching the car fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no way lol
looked at a few on you tube changed everything from a bike tire to a 5 ton tire in the field with nothing more than a basic tool box. (just not a motor cycle tire)
plan on buying spoons in the morning though
ohhh and wher is the vid on the forum?
thanks for the advice if you were here i'd give you a beer

DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
are you serious?????
20 min first tire/tube change no problems...
has to be on of the easiest things ive ever done.
hardest part was walking out of the store with a tube and not buying a new bike

Has anyone used these?
[QUOTE=WestOzKLX;311877]Try these.
K761 Dual Sport
Unbeatable combination of both street and off road grip and stability.
Remarkably durable nylon ply construction delivers total riding confidence.
DOT approved and H Speed rated.
Heavy duty construction designed to withstand the demands of off road riding.
Advanced compound design for extra braking and cornering traction.
Has anyone used these? I am looking at these or the Kenda 270's for a 80-90% street tire that will last a while and are inexpensive. Any suggestions
