Reply With Quoterear is easy front is a little harder with the 8 piston caliper.use some blue painters tape on the spokes so they dont get scratched by the caliper.
Hey gents, I have recently been thinking about trading my wheels, airbox cover and windscreen to get a different look. I was just wondering how difficult removing the wheels from the bike is. I have never done anything other than bleeding brakes, and changing oil on my bikes. This is a whole new skill set that i mqy not have. If anybody has a how-to, i Would greatly appreciate it. Thanks alot!

Good deal. Thanks yet again anr!
There's a video in Dave DIY thread you have to line the notches to get the caliper off
Get a manual.
Front is left hand thread.
Thanks for the input gents!
I remove the rear caliper before wheel removal. The wheel will come out without doing this but is a PITA to install without dinking and doinking the wheel.
Good deal. I figure whem the time comes to remove my wheels I will be ready!
