Trader Posted July 25, 2013 #1 Posted July 25, 2013 Is the rear wheel stripped down enough for a tire change or do I need to remove the "Hub" (see attached) You can also see why I am changing the tire!!!!
CaptainJoe Posted July 25, 2013 #2 Posted July 25, 2013 HUb doesnt have to be removed to change tire It s a good idea to clean and grease every other tire change though.
friesman Posted July 25, 2013 #3 Posted July 25, 2013 gee Steve, looks like you just caught that one in time. I think youre down far enough for a tire change. Brian
Trader Posted July 25, 2013 Author #4 Posted July 25, 2013 OK...now to grease the splines do I have to remove a circlip or something? Can I do that with needlenose whithout screwing anything up? (I don't have a ring clip tool) Can anybody point me to a "how to" thread" I saw my 88 is lubed by the oil....so I only have to grease what I see ???(driveshaft and

Trader Posted July 25, 2013 Author #6 Posted July 25, 2013 Thanks Joe!!!! Looks like I should even be able to do it. Leaving for Galena tomorrow early afternoon.. One more question....I noticed one brake pad is worn more than the other. Is it the MK II that you can just reverse one pad for the other?
CaptainJoe Posted July 25, 2013 #7 Posted July 25, 2013 just reverse them ... its normal wear on 1st and 2nd gens.
