I use G clamps for breaking bead. Can also use a car jack off the tow ball with a coupla bits of 4x2 under the rim but its more shagging aboutI put a new front tyre on yesterday. I will be doing the rear today.
This is the second time I have removed the rear wheel. The first time the cush drive separated and jammed leaving me unable to remove the wheel till I managed to replumb it back in. I thought I was ready today with a tyre lever between the shaft drive housing and the cush drive to keep it with the wheel as I pulled it off the splines. However, I still managed to get them half separated and jammed up. Got it off in the end, next time I will succeed all in one go.
Struggled getting the last bead off the rim (Metzler Tourance). I just need a third hand and it would be a doddle. I just need to grow one or convince someone to come over when I'm doing it next time. Came in for a rest and a cool down (plus a cup of tea of course) before popping on the new tyre which I always find easy compared to getting the old ones off.
No problem breaking the bead, no problem getting the first bead off the rim. It's getting the final bead over the last bit of rim and the wheel out completely.I use G clamps for breaking bead.

What a coincidence. Never heard of this event before either, then not 10 minutes later I'm on advrider searching for something completely different and stumble on this.Each year It goes from DFW Airport to Gainesville. Normally it's publicized well before the event. I didn't hear about it this year until the day of. Charter bus with all surviving M.O.H. recipients being escorted by motorcycles. I have to assume that all countries have a similar event.

Over here they're call gremlin bells. I thought that was universal. Supposed to protect against evil spirts from the road. I was always told that's why they're supposed to be on the lowest portion of the bike.like the cow bells!
wish I could I give this a thumbs down because people dont know or have the patience on how JB weld works.
I am not totally sure I understand that comment. Do you want to explain what you mean and perhaps give more details on what is the correct way to use JB weld?wish I could I give this a thumbs down because people dont know or have the patience on how JB weld works.
What part actually broke ? Would love to see some pictures. JB weld is some great stuff that I’ve had excellent results with.
I’m about to do my first oil change. Owners manual says 3.6qts. Are a lot of people just doing an even 4 with a filter? There’s no issue with overfilling it a little? Seems a lot easier than messing with the sight glass.The pan might have been over full, or it might have been just fine. It is a commonly-ish know problem with the sight glass. It is a very poor method of checking the oil on a T-12. I, and many others, drain our oil. . . . change the filter. . . and put 4qts back in. Don't look at the sight glass, just ride it. As a matter of fact, the window is totally useless until you ride . . . . for some distance. The double tank system on the T-12, which requires two/both drain plugs pulled, makes it very hard to ascertain how much oil is in the pan. Sadly, an inexperienced person could easily overfill her pan.
But, I'm with you . . . . I would have changed the oil too so I knew it was done right. Oh, you also might want to get rid of that old gas too, unless you had stabilizer in it. Enjoy the new ride.
