    When changing a motorcycle tire it helps to do a nice burnout before starting. It heats up the tire making it easier to pry off with tire irons.

        Yes, but usually not so far that the metal is showing. I learned from this video years ago. Having done tire changes with and without the luxury of a burnout. It is noticeably easier after the burnout.

        Maybe marginally. It’s pretty easy already to take an old tire off, especially on the machine.

        Putting a new tire on is always the hard part imo. I usually let mine sit in the sun for an hour before mounting it.
