Re: Do I have to remove exhaust to put on rear tire???

NO, remove the rear axle nut and slide the axle out. If the mufflers block your sliding the axle out, remove the bolts and plugs at the end of each side of the swingarm and you can remove the complete wheel, axle and all. If you do it this way though, you will need to break the chain. Sliding the axle out does not require breaking the chain.

What model?

Is your concern being able to slide out the axle because it hits the muffler? If so, take nuts off top of shocks, pull shocks off the stud, so that swingarm drops down.

Or is your concern about being able to get wheel out from under the fender? If so, do something to compress front suspension to raise up the back end.
 
It was more about not being able to slide the axle out due to muffler blockage but your answer sums it up in a simpler task thanks.
