I have 1985 version that has been stored for 20 years. Am attempting to clean up and restore so that 14 year old may ride to and from work this summer. Currently unable to extract rear wheel from it's axle. Expect rust/corrosion. Any thoughts??

My 1983 Suzuki FA50 has a 19mm, or 3/4 lug nut (castle nut), on the rear wheel. That rear brake cable and kick start engagement lever set-up is something else. Thanks for the tutorial.
