I have a Dyna with spokes and I have changed my on tires front and rear. I have a new rear Commander II now to put in my bike. I use three tire tools from HF. $6 each. Dyna Beads to balance. I clean the wheels while off and service the brakes.

It a fairly easy job to remove and remount the tires.

Well, it's been about a week or so. Got the new/used front "Profile" rim and installed tire on to new new wheel and rear tire . Also did a complete brake over haul, bearings and cleaned where it hasn't been clean in yrs. the A.E. 's are a world of difference that the stock Dunlop's and "Ride On" in both. I should be set for a while. Well...Next will be 2 yrs for the brake fluid change.
