Streffords do pairs for me for a tenner. Doubt they're open until Tuesday though.

Beatnck on here is also a tyre fitter, amongst other things Thumbs Up

If you buy tyres at Motorcycle mart in Kidderminster, they fit for free.

Otherwise, there's Genesis motorcycles in Bromsgrove, Classic and modern in Droitwich and CJ motorcycles also in Droit.

Easy enough to do. soap, water, rim protectors, couple levers, bit of wood and a g clamp. New valve too, and a foot pump.

Takes less time and effort to just do it, rather than paying a monkey to fuck around. If you were the type to pay somone you wouldnt have the wheel off already Laughing

Ive now done 5 tyres myself, and quite looking forward to the 6th, just got to find a cheap part worn on ebay.

cj charges about 30 quid to fit or he did last time i used him

Genesis put my KMX tyres onto my wheels for about £34, and didn't damage the rims which is worth more than £34 to me. I supplied them the tyres to fit, can't see how they or any other shop would refuse to fit tyres you have supplied from elsewhere?


I'm not very trusting to let anyone take the wheels out the bike or fit them, as scratching paint off a freshly restored bike would suck massively.

Costs under £50 to get a wheel refurbished, local bloke with a very good reputation just upped price from 30.

Id rather save some cash now and have them looking new next year, than always looking a bit shit Laughing

I've gone through three tyre changes this year at a tenner per pair. 0 damage every time.
