Back tyres punctured, how hard is it to get the back wheel off? It's a Yamaha Vity scooter.

On most scooters there is a nut on the back wheel ( opposite side to transmission) which you undo, then the wheel will be removable. To get it completely off it's likely you'll have to remove the exhaust.

Both my scooters were a case of removing exhaust and then a single nut in the centre of the wheel.

If you haven't got access to an air-line and impact gun, then just hold the back brake to crack off the nut.

Thanks guys, all done and dead easy.

Not knowing how twist & go boxes work I was just worried that lots of little spring loaded thingies were going to sproing out when I pulled the wheel off. Confused
