The first gas powered motorcycle was built by German inventors back in 1885. Even then, German engineering was some of the best in business. Over time, innovations have been made, and new technology has been discovered. Modern day motorcycles comprise much more complex systems of metal parts and wires. If you don’t know what’s going on with your hog, it’s not so easy as just sitting down and taking things apart to see how they work. If you’re not careful, you might end up with a nice new piece of garage furniture.
One thing hasn’t changed though: motorcycles still have rubber tires that connect them to the road. Therefore, those tires still need to be changed from time to time, because of a flat, or because the tread wears out—or maybe just for the purposes of an upgrade. In this free motorcycle maintenance video series, learn how to change a tire on your bike. Our expert mechanic will walk you through the process, with tips on what tools to use, how to remove the carter pin and axle nut, how to loosen chain bolts and punch the axle, types of tires to choose from, how to replace the tire and properly align it, and then how to tighten everything back up and go for a test ride. This is an easy, but essential, repair for any motorcycle enthusiast. If you love to ride, these videos are for you.

"Hi my name is Drew Neilon from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina in Little River. I work at Beach Customs and today I'm going to show you how to change and maintain a tire for Expert Village. The tools needed to change a motorcycle tire: You need one scissor jack to jack up the tire on the motorcycle. You need a one inch socket for the scissor jack itself. You need a torque wrench with a fifteen-sixteenths socket on it for loosening the axle and tightening the axle. You need two open end box wrenches, nine-sixteenths. You need one needle nose pliers for the cotter pin. You need a rubber mallet to knock, to punch the axle through and a punch, the brass punch itself. "
