Searched the archives, but came up empty. Time for tire change, what do I need for the front and rear axles? (Did I miss it in the manual, as well?)

The tool kit that came with your bike has the tool you need. It looks like a big nut, with no threads in the middle. Put that in the axle, then use the appropriate size wrench/ socket to remove the axle.

It's pretty cool that Buell included the tool with the XBs, a 36mm socket to remove the rear axle on a Tuber can be hard to find.

Thanks, man. I am embarrassed.

Don't sweat it. I'm sure others have had the same question.

Thanks, Gentleman. No problems with removal, and the Diablo Corsa rubber is being mounted.
