real easy job, and i balanced my own wheel with Dyna Beads, placed inside the tire itself,, no worries

 

Tire changing isn't hard - keep track of the spacers, clean the axle and coat lightly with anti seize before reinstalling.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; You're gonna need a motorcycle jack, a torque wrench that goes up to about 110 lbs (nut is 92-98 ft lbs on my dyna) and I believe a 1 and 1/8" socket (depending on the bike).&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Your tire is marginal - I'd ride it a little longer. Oh, and you're gonna have to reset (or at least check) the belt tension - HD make a decent tool to apply the proper pressure to measure the belt deflection.

 

Hey Mud,&nbsp\\; That 407 170/60-17 is a great tire.&nbsp\\; Already got twice the miles on mine than I got on that dumb 180.. Side by side you really cant tell much differance in width. plus the 170 sits a touch lower.. Great tire...

 

ronn, how is it in wet conditions??

on mine it is 60-65, "or it will sieze your bearings", so check the manual for your bike
