I changed the tires on my '81 SR500 using the same tire irons I carry on the KLR. These were tubeless Dunlop K591s coming off, and Avon Super Venoms going on. They were a little harder to lever off than tube type DOT knobbies, but not really a problem. Remember, if you get a flat you will likely have run on a low or flat tire for some distance, the tires will be hot and very pliable. Try to get them off the rim while they're still hot. Breaking the bead will be the part that is a little more difficult. but again the heat will help. Or just ride until the bead comes off. Devon carsmidt@... wrote:
