I think the chrome front end just sets off the bike.

Chrome front end is awesome and easy to maintain. Did mine last year and did chrome wheels at same time. The front end set me back $400 installed, swapped out my legs for chrome ones.

Stang951, thinking about it - you probably could do it on a jack. It would just be a little more time consuming getting the fender off before the wheel.
Other then that you can use the rear belt wrench in your tool kit to get to the bolts at the top of the triple tree. And you'll need some PVC pipe to set the seals.
Oh yeh - and oil.
I'm guessing you have a batwing bike too.
It's not rocket science but the Service Manual is very helpful.
