ABSTRACT:
A device for clamping a motorcycle wheel during fitting or removal of a tire has a base plate which can be gripped by the radially movable jaws of a conventional automobile tire fitting device, a number of arms each pivotably mounted at one end on the base plate for inward and outward radial movement of the other free end of the arm, a wheel carrier on the free end of each arm to act as a support for the motorcycle wheel laid thereon, a clamping stud on the free end of each arm to engage between the spokes of the motorcycle wheel, and a shifting device connected to the baseplate and to each of the arms for moving the free end of the arms inwardly and outwardly and to lock the arms in any position to which they are so moved, whereby the clamping studs may be moved outwardly to abut the inside periphery of the rim of the motorcycle wheel and retain the wheel firmly in position on the clamping device.
