Hi yep its time to remove the swingarm to repaint it and update the swingarm bearings
question
i know the  replacement pivot shafts are rare and mine seems like it hasnt had much maintenance whats the best way to remove it with out damaging it to much
J

thanks odin it came free after i dosed it with a spray chemical that freezes and lubricates at the same time
the main swing arm pivot bolt came free,the bearings just needed to be cleaned and re greased ( u were right)
my only concern was the the pivot shaft bush,  in one spot it had bearing indentions, so i just lightly sanded and moved it 45 degrees clockwise .
all seems ok
