Just got my new eagle tire changer in last night and today I put all together. Now all I need is tire to change may just take the wheel off the road star to play with it you know how it his when you get a new toy and you just can’t wait to play with it. And from the weather forecast it don’t look like I will be doing any riding for the next few days.  Don’t think I can put anything else in here I still have a 95 ford bronco and Jeep to get in the garage. She will be full by the time that happens.

I am so jealous!  Changing tires is about the only thing I cannot do for my bikes. Out of curiosity, what are you doing for balancing?

Nice addiction to the garage.  Will make the chore much easier. I like being able to take care of my bikes without having to use a bike shop.

Notice your Tourer's side stand on a 2 x 4.....and your Interstate isn't. Yet, they're at the same angle. What the heck?
btw....I park mine on a 2 x 4 also.....gives a little more passing room in the garage.

the tour leans over a little bit more than the i/s does it also sits just about 1\12 in. higher than the i/s does/ I guess i did just to keep it a little more upright

i must have a little warlock in me, dyna beads work great for balancing my tires. as for that outlet in the back ground, who's your electrician anyway?? you'll like having that tool, change a few tires and it'll pay for it's self. (then again, if you would get one of those tracktor tires on your cycle, you won't feel as safe riding, but you'll only have to change a tire once every decade)

They sure didn't work in the tires of my car.

Verrry nice rainman!  Yup, looks like the perfect compliment for my new toy! Just got it assembled yesterday with some local muscle to help flip this over and around. This is one heavy mo, I may have to start working out...     Just noticed I'm gonna have to move that wheel chock vice back to be able to use the drop tail feature for the rear tire removal. Good luck with your new toy.
