My brother wanted to get set up to change tires and since I had already gone through this whole ordeal I made a vid of my entire setup.
I go through and do a tire change on my CB1100F gold boomerang without adding any scratches. The equipment works great but I am just an amateur and don't change tires all that often, so I lack the grace you would see in a professional.

Harbor Freight Items used
Motorcycle tire attachment (note, I welded a plate to the bottom and bolted it to my milling machine table, it is supposed to mount on the harbor freight tire changer for cars)
