is the one not asked so here goes do i have to take the exhaust pipes off of both sides to get the wheel off to change the tire also i dont have my tire spoons any more they seem to have grown legs over the last year but i really need to get this tire changed as i have been riding on a bald tire for the last month i have a new one but took me 6 months to save up for it so i cant afford to have a shop do it and i really need to learn this stuff any suggestions and helpfull tips would be greatly appriciated and Squidly i would have came out to tx if i would have trusted the tire but i just didnt feel comfortable with it and i have only put 150 miles on it since i posted about tire size and you couldnt drive a needle in during that 150 miles too:confused24:
