When changing a motorcycle tire it helps to do a nice burnout before starting. It heats up the tire making it easier to pry off with tire irons.
Is that true?
Yes, but usually not so far that the metal is showing. I learned from this video years ago. Having done tire changes with and without the luxury of a burnout. It is noticeably easier after the burnout.

Maybe marginally. It's pretty easy already to take an old tire off, especially on the machine.
Putting a new tire on is always the hard part imo. I usually let mine sit in the sun for an hour before mounting it.
