Take a head stud off a mojave/z400/warrior or a fat punch and use it to beat the swingarm bolt through. Turn the frame on it's side, find a junk rim and put the frame on top so the bolt has room to go, soak the bolt with wd 40, and beat it with a 5 pound sledge. If that doesn't work, carefully sawzall the the sides closest to the frame first, stand the bike on the front with the linkage disconnected so the swingarm will swing down, and carefully sawzall the sides inside the motor. Use a brand new metal blade and take your time.
