Tom,
Once you remove the swing arm pivot spindles the swing arm should just pull
straight away from the frame. I removed the rear drive and all of the brake
rods etc..

I cannot get the swing-arm out of the frame!! I did it before, but I don't remember how I got it out. It is hitting the bar that the brake lever controls. Now, the bike is on the centerstand and that may be where the problem is. I may have to set the bike on a jack, put the centerstand up, then pull the swing-arm out. Neat trick with no rear wheel on it! The u-joint is in perfect shape!! Woo-Hoo!!! Oh, also, how do I get the baked on crud off the bottom of the mufflers?????????? Thanks...
