Tire Replacement
Got my bike out last weekend and my rear tire was flat. Filled it up and the next day it was flat again. Found a 3/4" piece of steal in tire so have to replace it. My local dealer is booked up till May so will try to remove thewheel myself . Was wondering if there is anything I should watch out for when removing and reinstalling rear wheel. It's a 2005 Super Glide Custom. Any advice would be appreciated.

Be sure to put some anti seize on the axle when you reinstall.
Hopefuly the factory did when it was first installed.

Removed belt guard and removed shock bolts loosened tightener bolts 3 turns eachand lifted bike with jack. This lowered rear wheel and I could slide the bolt out.
