New tires, tubes and rim strips arrived yesterday for my R75/6. I have Dynabeads that I plan to use in lieu of wheel weights.
I've never changed a motorcycle tire before, but have changed countless bicycle tires. I have changed vintage Vespa tires, too, but they have a two-part rim so tire irons are unnecessary. I have only the tire tools from the stock tool kit.
How much time should I set aside for this task?
Are there any other tricks or accessories that would be helpful?
Is talcum powder between tire and tube recommended?
TIA,
Justin
