As long as you leave the main peg, then it would probably work. If it were "me", I would just use my removal technique and leave the peg alone. Yes, the SM wheel is wide but it can slide forward and you can get the brake off of the peg, then remove the wheel. My previous Yamaha FZ6 streetbike was the same way... I guess it is all fat tire bikes since the caliper is inboard of the tire width. Good luck if you proceed with cutting... just remember swingarms are pricey if you mess up.
