Default Rear Wheel Removal

Guys, is there anything specific to look out for when removing and installing 05 Dyna rear wheel? Any hints where and how to mark things for reallignment? Never done this so any advice is welcome.

Thanks

Personally, I don't mark anything. Since my wheel goes back on pretty quick after removal, I just put things on the side of the bike they come off. Like the left spacer stays to the left of the swingarm, etc...

I would recommend that if it hasn't already been done on your bike, reverse the axle when you put it back together. It's reversed if the head of the axle is on the left hand side so you can pull it without removing the exhaust or disconnecting the shocks.

someone suggested on another tread to loosen the alignment bolts 3 turns each. when reinstalling wheel tighten exactly the same amount of turns.

or leave them where there at and just disconnect the lower shock bolts
