Reddit reviews Motion Pro 08-0183 Valve Core Remover

I actually keep a core removal tool in my bike kit.

For legal reasons, I have certainly NEVER removed the cores from the tires of cars that habitually park in motorcycle parking and leave them taped to the driver's window with a note.

You know, never done that ever.

In case anyone wants to pick one up to keep in their glovebox for, emergencies... here's the one I have.

They make a tool for it

I don't condone damage to other vehicles but this is why this is fantastic. One front tire, one rear tire. Opposite sides.

Slashing car tires are surprisingly loud, attract lots of attention, and not exactly a propositional response. However, a few twists of a valve stem remover will remove the $0.05 pin that holds all the air in and make one hell of an inconvenience See: http://amzn.com/B001KO84I0

Or even better just use this

No need in slashing tires, this is much easier/ more annoying.

I've done my rubber on my KLR. I have tubes but the process is (I'm guessing) pretty much the same:

1. Lift bike off ground. I have a stand to pick up the entire thing but you can do just one tire at a time. We'll do the front.
   
2. Remove the front axle. Loosen the axle nut and then the pinch bolts. Don't remove the axle nut. Lightly tap the axle nut to slide the axle out the other side. Keep backing the nut off and tapping until you can't back the nut out anymore. Remove the nut and pull the axle, supporting the tire. Inspect axle for wear and place on some shop rags. Remove speedometer cable when removing front tire. DO NOT SQUEEZE THE BRAKES WITH THE TIRE REMOVED. This will cause you problems trying to open your brake calipers back up to get the rotor in again.
   
3. Change your tire. Watch this video for instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAKIuSjPXxA
   
4. Put your front wheel back on, lube your axle.
   
5. Take the back wheel off in a similar fashion. Change the rubber in the same way.
   
6. Adjust your chain, instructions here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tqu7WGELU5s
   
   There are some tools to help you:
   
   

• Tire spoons (at least 2)
  
• Valve stem remover
  
• Rim guards
  
• Rim weights
  
• Chain alignment guide
  
  I took a few hours to do mine as it was my first time, but with practice you could probably get it down to less than an hour. I also took the opportunity to clean and lube my chain. I cleaned it with WD40 and dried it off before using chain wax to lubricate. It helps if the chain is a bit warmed up for this.

I prefer this valve core tool

Yes do exactly what that video shows. You don't need to take the tire off the bead unless you are changing the whole valve stem. You just want to install the core.

less than 30 seconds, you could change this boy's mind... https://www.amazon.com/Motion-Pro-08-0183-Valve-Remover/dp/B001KO84I0/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=valve+stem+tool&qid=1567048103&s=gateway&sr=8-7
