Greetings Mark!



 RW>> I'd have the bike shop do all of the work. I'll just ride it, thank
 RW>> you very much.

 MH> The previous tire change, I took it to the shop where I bought it.
 MH> This time a friend of mine offered to help show me how to do the job
 MH> myself.  He also let me borrow his bike jack.

 MH> Now that I know how it all works, it isn't too bad.  Not a super easy
 MH> task when dealing with the rear wheel by yourself.  Much easier with
 MH> two people.

The bike shop has a motorcycle lift that helps one technician do that job.

Last month I had occasion to visit the local Aprilla bike shop in town.
They even have a dyno to test builds for optimum power (they race
Apprillas). Can you imagine how that would work out if you were testing a
MC and the restraining straps snapped in two. 8^(


    Have a day!
