WRONG About the Rabaconda… I Was the Problem (Part 2)

In this video, I take accountability for a mistake that cost me a full day in the garage. After struggling to mount a new front tire on my 2018 Harley-Davidson Heritage using the Rabaconda tire changer, I was convinced the bead just wouldn’t seat. I blamed the tool. I questioned the install. I doubted the process.

But here’s the truth: the tire was seated the entire time — I just didn’t realize it. This is Part 2 of my Rabaconda install story, where I uncover the reality that the Rabaconda wasn’t the problem… I was.

Also, had a chance to do a @stradpizza food review. Gotta say, @TheStradman didn’t just toss his name on some crappy pizza joint, I think that place is an easy 8/10 for anywhere in the country, 10/10 as far as Phoenix pizza is concerned.

If you’ve ever worked on a motorcycle DIY project and second-guessed yourself to the point of wasting hours chasing ghosts, this video will hit home. From tire mounting to bead seating, I walk through the experience, what went wrong (and what didn’t), and ultimately share why the Rabaconda tire changer is still one of the best tools for the job — especially if you’re working with tough cruiser tires.
