I've done it several times om many bikes.
The Triumoh was a cinch compared to the 6 ply rated knobbies!
Not high tech, not even the balancing.
Use a little soap and water on the bead to help it slip on a bit easier.

If you have rain grooves in the pavement in your part of the country seriously consider the super venoms. Seriously. The K70 follows the grooves so religously that when I'm on the freeway and I see the grooves go out the off ramp, I just signal cause I know I'm going off the freeway also. The super venoms are the way to go and in most cases if you show the bike you will get points for riding to offset the points lost for wrong tires. (But DO protect those made in England Rims)

Check out Bridgestone BT45. 3.25 X19" front and 4.00 X 18" rear. New rubber always feels good! Roy
