Removing My Rear Wheel - '81 750 LTD

I got a flat and want to remove the rear wheel but the mufflers are in the way!
Do I have to remove the exhaust system to take off the wheel?
Can I just move or remove the tail pipes?

moved, I have not removed one exhaust to get the rear wheel off and replaced. But it should not be an issue with your ride either.

With the bike on its centerstand, I would think the bolt would be below the exhaust. But, if not I would just remove the muffler, not the full exhaust.
