Just got it firing!
Hello,
I have a V7iii special and I'm getting ready to change the tires. Reading forum posts gives me lots of good advice with the option of taking off the drive box with the rear wheel and lubing the splines, etc.
My question is this. I've changed the wheels on my Yamaha shaft drive bike and it was much easier to remove the rear wheel if I took off the rear fender first -- it just gave me a better view to line things up and A LOT more room to roll the wheel straight back. Has anyone tried this with the V7iii or variants? Is there a reason not to give it a try? I have the Stein Deise lift to get the rear wheel off the ground but it seems like it is going to be a pain and I don't mind pulling a few more bolts to give myself more room to work.
