While there are Youtube videos showing how to change tyres yourself with minimal tools, I’ve found it to be a struggle. A tyre changer like this does make it a lot easier, though you’ll probably want to bolt it to the ground for stability.
Inflating the tyre will require an airline, the flow rate needs to be sufficient to cope with the leakage when the bead isn’t seated, so you’ll need to take it to a garage forecourt if you don’t have a compressor.
The FZS600 wheels are narrow enough for static balancing to achieve a good result, it’s something I’ve always done myself as the fitter I used to use didn’t have a balancer that could cope with m/c wheels.
