Can the swingarm pivot bolt on a 2002 Honda EX400 be removed for lubrication without removing other items first - i.e. rear axle, etc.? Other threads have recommended frequent removal and lubrication to avoid bolt freezing in frame.

you may have to remove your rear brake lever, but thats it.

good luck!

all you have to do is unhook the brake pedal from the master cylinder (a little clip) and take the nut off the left side.
