True that!
If you keep the grease up to them its a walk in the park. After reading this I was snugging up the head after doing my top end and decided I'd just to the swingarm pivot as it hasn't been done in 85hrs. Linkages get grease every time the shock is out and thats been pretty frequently. Engine still bolted in, linkage and shock still attached. Couple taps with a rubber mallet and she's out. Bit of fresh grease in the bearings, bit more on the axle, back in and shes done. Not a complete or thorough job, but just some fresh lube to make sure she'll slide right out next time I have it pulled apart.
