Default Tire Change Videos - I Found them!

The tire change video has been elusive lately and some people were asking about it recently so I went and looked for it again. I found it! Along with another one for another persons view on the procedure.
Enjoy

The one we talked about...

The new one that may not be the one we talked about but very good too. Even has a bonus on the Dunlop Stickers.

Good videos. I actually learned something that should help me out the next time I change tires. (I only used two tire irons last time.) I'm not sure if there is a big difference between dirtbike tires and street tires, but when I changed out the tires on my KZ750 last year, they seemed to have much stiffer sidewalls/beads than the tire the guy in the video was changing. IDK, I must suck at changing tires.[:@]

Hey he's using the same MRP stand like I have. I wish I could change tires as good as him.

Thats helpful!.
A good tip for stiff sidewalls, is boil up a jug or two of hotwater and pour it on the sidewalls around the valve area and rim locks. Do it a couple of times and the tyre gets pretty hot but makes it easy.
Of course you can always burnout to get the old tyre hot haha.
Good tyre levers, (the mousse ones are nice)
A good rubber hammer
then you are away!

It's a video of the guy's 15 minute pit time at the ISDE. The tire change part is 6 minutes. He swaps a filter after that and has time to spare.

I believe the bike is a KDX 200/220 is that right? I thought getting to that air filter looked familiar, not to mention the axle snails, just like the KLX.
