Has anyone removed the rear tire on a Bagger or TC? I have the Kern-Stabi lift. Will that get it high enough to get the tire/rim out? Just wanting to make sure it will clear the fender, etc....
 
I haven't had to remove my rear wheel; however, I'm guessing that you can complete the majority of the wrench work in freeing the rear wheel while secured on the Kern-Stabi, then perhaps lift the bike via the Kern-Stabi with a floor jack/lift in order to clear the rear fender.

Looking at the wheel set instructions, it does state a lift stand as a required tool; however, it doesn't hint to the required height.

Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and purchased a lift to jack up the bike on the Kern-Stabi.
 
Looks like 100 Nm; see attached wheel set installation instructions:
