No-mar ftw. Trailer hitch model, home made floor mount adapter that's bolted to the floor.

I've got a NoMar Classic. It's paid for itself in just a few years. I have three riders in the family, and Terri and I put on between 15 and 20 thousand miles per year. The dealer I bought my XT from charges $75.00/wheel for mounting & balancing a tire. So the money I spent on the Tire Changer and Balancing Stand was balanced out in less than three years. If you count that I buy my tires online and I pay a lot less than a dealer would charge, I paid it off even faster.
If you're in my area, I do Buell and Moto Guzzi wheels free of charge, and I'll usually throw in a free meal (some kind of chicken, beef or pork cooked over charcoal). Come by, watch me change your tire, shoot the breeze, and decide if you want to get a NoMar for yourself. |

John,
Why don't you and Terri move out here to Omaha, NE. Air is probably cleaner and it's a long ride to ride to anywhere interesting. |

I have a friend with a machine similar to (or maybe even a) that Hoffman Machine. He was going to buy a No-Mar but by the time he got all the attachments and accessories he wanted the Automatic machine he got was a few dollars less than the No-Mar. He changed a tire for me on it in July when I got a puncture on the way down to Deals Gap, worked great.... |

Last time I checked I couldn't find the MC attachment at Harbor Freight. Is it still available? |

no. I couldn't even find the manual changer on their website when I looked. |
