Good morning getting ready to change rear tire in the book they say to remove rear fender and panel but in the videos that I have only WATCHED because I'm totally deaf I didn't see them removing any Tupperware but they might be telling me to do so I just need to know whats what Thanks

Actually, I think it can be done both ways. Personally, I removed the rear black "fender" because for me it made it easier to just role the wheel out he back rather than lift the Spyder high enough to do it. So, what ever works best for you should work.

Agree...

It's how you are set up to do it. If you can lift the spyder high enough then the wheel will drop out the bottom. If not then removing the fender allows you to pull it out the back...good luck after this you will be a pro....:thumbup:

:agree: I'm not the one changing tires; but I've never seen them remove a rear fender, in order to get the job done. :thumbup:

I just change my rear tire last week and no I did not have to remove the rear fender. I changed it using a hoist so it's up in the air. To replace the brake caliper there is a trick, the caliper turns in. It's not like a car where you use a C clamp. Very important the first step it remove the sensor its on the left side. The funny nut they use turns so you'll need pliers to hold the nut from turning. I will PM you my phone number so you can call me if you run in a problem.
