Question Swingarm Removal With Pictures?

I tried pulling the swingarm off my ec200 last night and didn't have any luck. I searched through a few threads and saw ideas of loosening motor mount bolts, etc; has anyone done a pictorial of removing it?

If not, can someone go through the steps in relative order?

The biggest issues I came up against were trying to get the linkage nuts off and I had zero luck even budging the swingarm shaft (though after reading about guys using sledge hammers to get it through, I'm not surprised).

I couldn't get any of the linkage nuts to budge, thought pulling the top shock bolt would help if there was any latent tension, but that didn't do anything.

Any help greatly appreciated.
