  • Cable for rear tire

    Hi Everyone, do you know who has or where l can get the cable that is used to remove the rear wheel/tire? My 78 XS11 didnt come with one and will be changing the rear tire in about a month.
    Thanks for any info.

    They come up on Ebay from time to time. You can use mine if you really need it. I've removed my rear wheel several times and have never used it. (the signal lenses are on the way).
    You can always remove one end of each rear shock and prop the rear wheel up to where the axle clears the mufflers.

          I tried using mine once just to see how it works. What a pain in the a$%. Having factory hard bags makes it virtually useless unless you remove the bags. Lucky for me, I think Carter was still president when I last had a flat on the road.
          When a 10 isn't enough, get a 11. 80g Hardbagger
