ride-on install question

[wyliec]

The last time I installed the ride-on I didn't jack up the spyder (2008 SM5); I just deflated the tires. I'm having all 3 tires replaced next wednesday; I doubt the ride-on will be here in time to let the dealer install the ride-on. Is it not a good idea to just deflate the tire without jacking the spyder?

Also, the code lamonster still works for a 10% discount with ride-on.

I've always just deflated the tires while they are on the ground. As long as you don't roll the bike while the tires are flat, it's no big deal. I always do one tire at a time in case I have to roll the bike to get the stem in the right place for the next tire.

but to make it easier put some blocks under the A arm about a 1/2" lower so when you deflate the tire it will not flatten as much. Easier to get products in. When you pump the tire back up slide the blocks to the other side...just a thought...
