How hard is it to take the pivot bolt off the swingarm on a 250x?

since it is pretty much identical to the 300EX, and since the one on the 300EX doesnt run through the motor. It is very easy. Take a longer wrench to get some leverage, and once it is loosened, put the allen wrench into the other side, and loosen once again. Then, hold up your swingarm to take off all preasure, and push it out. It was very easy when i took the one out of my 300EX. I thought it was gonna be a pain, but it was very easy. When i reinstalled it, i coated it with Antiseize, or you can use White Lithium. This will keep it from rusting and will make it easy to take out again.
