Until now I've taken my S3T to the shop to get the tires replaced. This time I decided to do the rear my self. I took the rear off and took it to the shop and had it changed. I brought it back and proceeded to try and put it back on. Now I need to know the secret of how to get the spacer on the right side. Seems to be no room to slip it in there. Any secrets I should know???

With the wheel in position, you can't fit in between the heads of the bolts on the pulley and the swingarm so you need to get in kind in place before you push the axle all the way through. It's a doable without any but if you want a trick, tie it in place with dental floss and pull the floss once the axle has captured it.

Thanks. Never thought of that. I was going to have the wife help. She does'nt like to do that because I sometimes use "colorful" language when things do'nt go just right.
