XMAX 300 rear wheel removal

Post by orange1290 »

Anyone attempted this yet? I won't need to do it for a few months but I want to take the wheels in for new tyres later this year. Prefer to remove and refit wheels myself. I'm aware the exhaust has to be removed, that's easy. Does the wheel come off by undoing the right hand side only (facing from rear)?

In addition to the muffler you will probably need to remove the rear brake caliper and the swing arm and also loosen the shock absorber at the bottom also advisable to have a new gasket for the muffler

I have to do mine in about 2/3k miles,
looks like undo wheel spindle pull it out drop
wheel out change tyre and stick it back taking
care not to bugger the anti lock stuff,
I may be being optimistic.
Got a new rear last week £40 mates rates but
you can get them on line £45 ish.
