DISCLAIMER - I AM NOT A TRAINED YAMAHA TECHNICIAN - yet here you can see me rising to the challenge of removing and refitting the rear wheel of my Yamaha Tenere 700 ... normally no big deal? Well this is with a difference, no centre stand, and of course no paddock stand either as I'm on a bit of a ride in a real-world situation using just the 'Ride With Me' #trailstand which I last showed viewers on a recent video youtu.be/5Qqmqo-ZMVo when I gave it a bit of a review.
I decided to do this 'remove and refit' as it was suggested by a gentleman on a Tenere 700 Facebook page (thanks Carsten 😄) that it would possibly be too difficult a task because of the fact the back wheel wouldn't be vertical whilst using the trail stand. This is because of the potential struggle with the brake caliper, the potential damage to the ABS sensor and holding in the wheel spacers along with the chain installation whilst also struggling to lift the HEAVY rear wheel and line it all up at an angle to suit the leaning bike. Yes a bit of a trail stand challenge.
Of course, this way is, or was, always going to be more difficult with these circumstances. However, I decided that removing my centre stand was worth it for the weight saving and ground clearance improvement. So I invite you to watch and see how I get on.
