  • KTM 1290 Super Duke - Rear Wheel removal - Many will know how to do this, this video is for those who don't. It's an easy job with the right tools. This demonstrates how i go about it. It's much cheaper getting tyres changed if you take in loose wheels. And you also get to know it's done correctly as well as gaining experience working with your bike. I hope this helps and saves you some hard earned money. x
    Rear Wheel nut Torque - 250 Nm - 184.4 lbf ft
    But i mark it with tipex before removing, and when refitting i line up the marks as i don't have a big enough torque for this job.
    REAR STAND - For the many that ask about the rear stand, it is made by "ConStands" and works very well. Here is a link, although I think mine came from another supplier. www.amazon.co....

    A perfect video Kev, you answered all my questions, confirmed all my suspicions and delighted me how easy it is to remove a wheel on my first single sided swing arm bike. I won't be buying the KTM special socket at £ 37.00. Many thanks

      Thank You.

    • @AntaresSQ01
      @AntaresSQ01 Год назад +1

      The main reason you'd want to is because the special socket is much flatter and is much less likely to cam off than a standard 60mm, if that standard 60 cams off, say goodbye to taking your rear wheel off again. Besides, good luck trying to find a 60mm socket for less than 37 quid...

    I have the super duke R v3 I watched the front and rear wheal video hopefully it’s same or similar. I want sport/touring tyres not sport tyres with a 200 rear impossible to find may have to put a 190 on will be 5mm lower tho .

      The R 3.0 looks amazing. Id have a black one. Yep, sports tyres get eaten. I still use the Angel GT,s and get 3-4000miles from the rear, almost double that from the front. Yes, i think the R and GT 's are same, or very similar wheel, brake systems. Let me know if its drastically different. 👍

    So you don't have to realign the wheel after because it's only a single side swing arm right?
    I wanna take the wheel off and take it to the shop for a bearing replacement but if it has to be realigned I'll just take it to the shop.

    • @KevKam
      @KevKam  2 года назад +2

      Correct. The swining arm is always inline with the frame. No allignment needed or possible. Its an easy job with a long breaker bar or similar.

    • @KevKam
      @KevKam  4 года назад +2

      Hi and Thank You. Yes, your right, its a Givi on a Givi universal plate. Ive 2 top boxes a 58 and 42. Whilst the 58 is great for long tours with a tent etc, it looks overkill when the panniers aren't on the bike so for trips without a tent, thats when i put the 42 on. the universal plate is on a SW Motech street rack - www.ebay.co.uk/p/20035206376?iid=153844603738&chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=710-134428-41853-0&mkcid=2&itemid=153844603738&targetid=878020102480&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=1006755&poi=&campaignid=9446079328&mkgroupid=95287732945&rlsatarget=pla-878020102480&abcId=1139356&merchantid=191377525&gclid=CjwKCAjw-YT1BRAFEiwAd2WRthCJW41DcZQPCMXJ0U2qCIkY4l9IUSeBzJ7hFqpvIeCTRJfwQInVLRoCsD0QAvD_BwE

      @KevKam  4 года назад +1

      Probably, I’ve never used one and not got one, all my work is done as inexpensively as I can. The big pry bar is free 😁. I sometimes think the guns do the nut up tooooo tight. My 55mm Diavel rear nut was a pig to shift, even with a bar.

  • @fernandoavila8419
    @fernandoavila8419 6 лет назад +2

    Don't use the gear box to hole the wheel from moving, it will mess up a few components and put stress on the chain . Use the rear brake and push the bar the wheel will not move .

    • @KevKam
      @KevKam  6 лет назад

      Thanks. With 2 people the rear brake can be used. This is the way for 1 person. I beleive most people and workshops put the bike in gear, it does no harm.

    • @djkham
      @djkham 6 лет назад +2

      Another good trick if doing solo: deflate the rear tire almost completely -that way, it won't try and spin when you apply force to loosed the nut.
