The bolt hits the side of the frame where the sidestand is, so how is it possible to get this bolt out?

I'm used to my WR250f manual which has step-by-step workshop instructions & pics. GasGas didn't create similar workshop manuals?

EDIT: I worked it out, had to loosen the very bottom bolt which has some little frame mounting tab thing, then the dog bone could pivot toward me and the bolt could be removed
When I did that same job on my '01 XC200, using a DIY stand just like yours, I used a tie down strap to secure the bike to the stand.

Just sayin'......
