How to Remove the Rear Wheel of the Triumph Tiger 800

To remove the rear wheel of the Triumph Tiger 800, loosen the nuts located in the centre of the wheel that secure the central axle to the end of the swingarm. Once these two nuts are removed, unscrew the bolts that secure the rear brake caliper, detaching it from the disc; you will also need to move the chain from the corresponding sprocket. When all these components have been removed, it will be possible to completely detach the wheel, allowing you to insert a new replacement part, reassembling all previously removed components.
