Pit Bull’s new Pit Crew Tire Wedge is a height-adjustable device that allows one person to easily align and steady motorcycle wheels so axles are easy to remove and install.The Tire Wedge can be used with most Pit Bull front and rear stands made in the last past 20 years. It quickly attaches without hardware with a solid press fit. Once in place below a tire, height can be set between 0.75 to 4.9 inches with a twist of its adjustment knob–even with gloved hands. This positioning allows wheel spacers and brake-caliper mounts to be perfectly lined up so axles slide in and out without binding.
The first of five innovative new products being introduced by Pit Bull in 2015, the Pit Crew Tire Wedge makes changing tires easier than ever. Made from steel, zinc-plated to fend off the elements, like the company’s legendary stands, it’s built to outlast any motorcycle and comes with a lifetime warranty.Designed and manufactured in America, the Pit Crew Tire Wedge is available exclusively from Pit-Bull.com or by calling 256-533-1977.Pit Bull Tire Wedge Defining Features:
Allows axles to quickly slide in and out without binding
Quickly aligns axle spacers and brake-caliper mounts

Hello everyone and welcome once again to Ultimate Motorcycling’s weekly Podcast—Motos and Friends.
My name is Arthur Coldwells.
This week’s Podcast is brought to you by Yamaha motorcycles. Discover how the YZF-R7 provides the perfect balance of rider comfort and true supersport performance by checking it out at YamahaMotorsports.com, or see it for yourself at your local dealer.
This week’s episode features Senior Editor Nic de Sena’s impressions of the beautiful new Harley-Davidson Low Rider ST that is loosely based around the original FXRT Sport Glide from the 1980s. Hailing from The Golden State, these cult-status performance machines became known as West Coast style, with sportier suspension, increased horsepower, and niceties including creature comforts such as a tidy fairing and sporty luggage.
In past episodes you might have heard us mention my best friend, Daniel Schoenewald, and in the second segment I chat with him about some of the really special machines in his 170 or so—and growing—motorcycle collection. He’s always said to me that he doesn’t consider himself the owner, merely the curator of the motorcycles for the next generation.
Yet Daniel is not just a collector, but I can attest a really skilled rider. His bikes are not trailer queens, they’re ridden, and they’re ridden pretty hard. Actually, we have had many, many memorable rides on pretty much all of the machines in the collection at one time or another.
From all of us here at Ultimate Motorcycling, we hope you enjoy this episode!
