RE: Rear Wheel Removal
You may not even need to remove the mufflers, just remove the rear bolts and let them hang, depending on how "fat" they are.
If you have 2 into 1 exhaust, you can turn the axle around and you won't have to remove any exhaust the next time.
Sorry, haven't done a softail.

RE: Rear Wheel Removal
hmmm...well when kdietz & i removed his rear wheel on his ultra...we just aired up the draggin baggers and never took the mufflers off [8D]....we just made a mark on the cam on both sides, no tool needed...no belt adjustment tool either...a belt is within spec if you grab it in the center on the bottom and can twist it about 1/2 inch each way...yall try too hard

RE: Rear Wheel Removal
Bill,
Thank you for the offer.
I have read your article, and I ordered the service manual last night.
$20 bucks at Cycle gear + 149 for the tire bringing the wheel in vs $150 at the dealer and $179 for the tire bringing the bike in. Local indy was even more!
