Hey guys. I bought a no-mar scratchless tire changer and I am trying to make up the cost. $15 per tire for mounting and balancing for forums members.

Not sure about the rules on posting services, but either way you should also post up on Craigslist

If its against the rules I would be happy to take it down. Already up on CL charging $20 per tire. $15 is the discount price.
It's fine in this forum, read the sticky at the top for the format guidelines.

Yeah I figure $15 per tire is pretty fair. Most shops in town charge atleast $25 per tire if you buy from them =(

Yep, Cycle Gear is $20 (plus a disposal fee -- $2.50?) if you buy from them. (But they will balance for free!)
$15 sounds fair to me.

Now THAT is a major plus! :clap:
On the other hand, it takes away an opportunity for fellowship.
On the gripping hand, my "new" bike has tubes. :doh:
I may give you a holler next time I need a tire change, Sebastian.

Sorry for the late reply guys. Just moved, I am now located right off 610 and 288. By all means if you ever need any tires changed or any other motorcycle help for that matter, just give me a shout.

How are you liking that nomar changer? I'm thinking about picking one up and doing something similar to help recover the expense (I'm in Lubbock)

Its a great machine. If you've never done tires before its rather simple. Just watch alot of videos and make sure to depress the tires in the proper areas and most tires are cake. Only problems I have had thus far have been getting off a heavy cruiser tire and getting some old CB rims to seat. Besides that its been great.

Sebastian, I will give you a call next week, in the mean time how is the "logistics" of the tire change?
Let me know . . .

Sounds good. Not sure what exactly you mean by "logistics", but its a pretty simple process. It takes about 20 minutes per tire if they are off the bike.

Logistics is how does he get the wheels to your location I think...

Take them off the bike and put them in the car?:shrug: or just bring the bike and I can take them off for extra.

OK, I will see how complicated (to me) it is to take the wheels off the bike; the other thing is your time availability to do this, I guess once we talk, I will know...
Thanks!
Camilo
Sebastian -
I ordered the tires online and will be arriving next week. I will keep you posted...

Sounds good. My time availability really varies depending on the week (I am an Engineering Student at UH, so some weeks are more ruff then others). Generally speaking though, I am good to do tire changes on the weekends or after 5 Mon, Tues, Thurs. Just give me a call and we can work out then when you would like to get it by.
If your going to take the wheels off your bike. Make sure to look up a service manual, that you have a lift, and that you have the appropriate tools. Also, when putting the axles back in I recommend lubing the axles with moly grease (can be found at Autozone or similar stores) as this is recommend service on all bikes.
Sebastian, I ended up dropping the tires at the Yamaha dealer earlier this week only for the convenience (they are basically in my neighborhood) and I installed one on Wednesday and the other one today.

Hey guys! Got a message from someone from TWT so I figured I'd post up and say Im still around and doing tires in the 610 and 288 area (I'm located off of Scott St). If you need a tire change I can be reached at 832-305-6355. I may not respond to posts or PMs quickly, so please just give me a call or text! Didn't get any of the old PMs because this account was linked to an obsolete email address but has now been updated.
