Reply To: Swingarm Removal?
Yes done it many times.
1. remove exhaust trust me.
2. Get a Cruiser Floor Lift thing (this life cruiser bikes) , so this lift will sit on your frame bars under the engine and lift the bike.
3. Once lifted, get breaker bars and torque wrenches and service manual because you need the torque numbers for specific bolts when tightening things back
4. Pivot = 17mm both sides.
5. Rear axle = 22mm & 23mm sockets
6. Bottom linkage = Get between 17mm to 27mm sockets because one nut is bigger than the other.
=== Swap swingarm 😉 but i know it sounds simpler than it looks but take your time , the key impotant thing is to get a bike lift to hold the bike in the air safely!!!
This lift also helps do maintenance like fork changes , shock changes , or wheel changes.
