jneed53 Posted June 30, 2009 #1 Posted June 30, 2009 I was just looking at the repair manual for rear wheel removal procedures and could not help but think it can't be required to just about disassemble the whole rear of the bike to get the wheel off.
eusa1 Posted June 30, 2009 #2 Posted June 30, 2009 right side bag, right side slip on muffler, and brake caliper, thats all i remove.
FreezyRider Posted June 30, 2009 #3 Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah, I don't know who wrote that manual, but they aren't living in the real world.
wes0778 Posted June 30, 2009 #4 Posted June 30, 2009 right side bag, right side slip on muffler, and brake caliper, thats all i remove. I don't even have to take the right muffler off...
Eck Posted June 30, 2009 #5 Posted June 30, 2009 I don't even have to take the right muffler off... Really ........ Heck, I dont even pull the rear axel........
1BigDog Posted June 30, 2009 #6 Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah, I don't know who wrote that manual, but they aren't living in the real world. Theyre living in the "lets charge them the maximum per hour that we can get away with world" Personally, I drop both bags so I can clean up the whole area better. I also remove the whole rail system under the bags as 1 piece to give me much clearance. Caliper too. What I also do is to use a floor jack under the wheel (once its raised on the bike jack of course) to raise and lower the wheel. Sure makes it easier on the back.
jneed53 Posted June 30, 2009 Author #7 Posted June 30, 2009 Pretty much what I thought -- thanks all.
