The HF tire changer is "Da Bomb" (means its great). I find the vertical piece just gets in the way - don't need it. I've done GL1200 and GL1500 tires on it and it makes for a quick and easy removal and mounting. It helps to let the new tire warm up in the sunshine first.
Just did a set of Michelin Commanders on a GL1200 and it was downright easy!
BTW, you'll be glad you got rid of those nasty Dunlop Elite II tires. The Elite III versions are MUCH better (shoulda went with the Michelin Pilot GTs
).
Next up is a set of tires for my friend's BMW GS(something or other).
I love the smell of fresh rubber in the morning!
