Don't have a detailed service manual. Easiest way to remove rear wheel. Also going to replace rear wheel with automotive tire because I have a sidecar attached. I understand that a 225/50R16 auto tire will fit properly. Anyone out there verify that will work? Thanks

Get someone else to do it.

To remove the rear wheel:

Unbolt the bottom exhaust from its attach bracket and rotate downward. This allows access to the axle nut.

Remove bolt attaching rear brake to frame.

Loosen axle nut.

Jack up bike.

Remove axle nut and then remove axle.

Rotate brake out of the way.

Wiggle the wheel off the rear drive.

Drop wheel and pull out from under the fender. The bike will have to be jacked up fairly high to do this.
