How do I remove the rear wheel on my 2001 Yamaha YP250 scooter.

SOURCE: Removing Yamaha rear tire (1100 Classic)

do you mean remove the wheel? tires are best left to a shop to do as they have the machine. drive shaft yes? undo all bolts thru frame to final drive casing. slacken wheel nut but do not remove spindle, pull wheel back and out of the frame the drive shaft comes with it, tace out spindle and now lift final drive from wheel, there may be a spacer which might fall out. done deal..

Ken Budd's answer is incorrect: There is only a potential engine problem when the oil light comes on permanently.

The speedo/mileometer on thge Majesty normally sends pulses to a counter that switches on the oil-change warning light at 3,000 km. If the speedo/mileometer ceases to function the oil-change warning light blinks steadily simply to let you know the pulses aren't getting sent to the counter.
The most likely problem is a broken speedo cable; a new one costs £5.72 from AJSutton and you can easily fit it yourself: Take off the windscreen then reach through the gap above the headlamp to unscrew the outer cable beneath the speedo.

I've got the same problem as you right at the moment with my 1996 Majesty but in my case its the gear unit on the front axle (to which the speedo cable connects) that has stopped working: I'm currently on the look out for a new gear unit. Does anybody have one ?

The worst part of getting the wheel off is removing the exhaust pipe. It is held to the engine by 2 nuts that can be accessed form below the bike and then by a single nut to the rear of the bike frame. Once the exhaust is off you can remove the centre nut of the wheel after having removed the split pin at which point the wheel will come off.

First jack the bike from the rear, then you have to unscrew the diff bolts on the left hand side of the swing arm, unscrew the rear brake rod, and the drum stabilizer, then unscrew the main hub bolt and gently pull out the wheel. Be careful when pulling it out l as the prop-shaft tends to fall quickly and you might get hurt or damage it or paint-work, and the diff has a tendency of detaching from the wheel.
