There can be a tremendous savings when installing tires yourself. Tires can be purchased at lower prices over the internet or by mail order as well as the savings that can be had by mounting and balancing them yourself. Besides that, you will know it has been done right.
One of the challenges encountered doing it yourself is being able to balance the wheel assembly easily and effectively. A motorcycle tire balancer is often expensive, takes up a lot of room and in the case of a single-sided swingarm, requires a special rear wheel adaptor which is available from the dealer at a premium price.
The KTM/Husqvarna Portable Motorcycle Wheel Balancer pictured above addresses all of these problems.
Extremely accurate running on precision low friction shielded ball bearings.

KTM uses various front axle diameters. The only one that presents any challenge is the 30mm axle. All of the bikes with front axles less than 30mm use the FZB below. In order to determine the size of your axle you will need to measure it at the retaining screw or nut end. An easy way to measure it with it still on the bike is to remove the retaining screw or nut from the end of the axle and measure the diameter of the hole in the fork leg where the axle comes through. 30mm is 1.181" or approximately 1 3/16". If the hole is smaller then you don't have a 30mm axle. If you do have a 30mm axle then the KTMA balancer is the correct one for your bike.
Here are some models that customers confirm have a 30 mm axle: KTM Bikes 640 Adventure 660 Rally 690 Rally 790/890 All Models 950 Adventure 990 Adventure 1190 Adventure & Adventure R 1190 RC8 1290 Super Adventure S/R
Husqvarna Bikes FE350 Norden 901
Here are some models customer have confirmed do not have a 30 mm axle: KTM Bikes 200 XC-W 350 XC-F 390 Aventure 500 EXC 530 EXC 690 Enduro

The Famous "Shipping and Handling" Game
We don't play the Shipping and Handling game. Most sites these days advertise one price and then get you with an excessive shipping and add-on handling charge during the checkout procedure. They figure if you've gotten that far you'll probably just go for it. We think that's sneaky business so all of our prices to the US include shipping right to your door. For delivery outside of the US please refer to the International Shipping prices above.
