[QUOTE="Scab, post: 299601, member: 1708"] Here's how I always did it: Place bike on center stand. Place floor jack with 2x4 supporting header pipes. Remove rear wheel mounting hardware. Slide rear wheel off drive splines. Do not yet remove from under bike. Remove front brake calipers and front axle. Slowly raise jack. This lowers the rear of the bike. Pay attention that the rear wheel passes beside the rear final drive. This will allow the rear to drop lower than normally possible. Remove front wheel that will now easily clear the fender. Slowly lower the jack untill the rear wheel can be removed. Both wheels are now out with minimal disassembly of bike. I could do it in about 20 mins. [/QUOTE]
