The other day I needed to change my tires on the Suzuki DR650. I've been changing motorcycle tires my entire life and never had such a problem breaking a rim bead as I did with the rear tire. You can read more about that nightmare here.
I was at Harbor Freight and thought this motorcycle lift would be perfect for my tire change job. It turned out the DR650 is slightly heavier than the recommended weight, I didn't know that at the store when I purchased this. I used it anyway though and it worked out great. This lift has a 350 LB capacity and should work fine for most dual sports, pit bikes, and motorcross motorcycles that are UNDER 350 LBS.
I'm still working on losing weight. I never realized how fat I looked until I started doing these videos. I'm OK with that though, that is what is currently motivating me to lose weight. Regardless, I decided to name this one....
The lift itself was $50 from Harbor Freight. It's made by Pittsburgh Tools. I'd probably look for something with a higher weight limit if you own a DR650. Had I realised in the shop, I probably would have waited for something that meets my weight needs. Even my motorcycle is overweight 馃ぃ. It worked fine though for me, keep in mind those manufacturer weight limits are there for a reason. Better safe than sorry, The Dood just likes living dangerously I guess.
Anyway, hope you enjoy "Fat Guy With A Motorcycle Lift"
