i have just had the same probelm. the bolt has prolly seized onto the metal sleeves that are in the swingarm. in order to get mine out we had to use a torch and a very good user and cut the right side out. this allowed us to tap the left side out and just have the right side in. we then used a die grinder to cut the bolt head off and then push it through towards the center. it worked well but took many hours of thinking and contemplating before anything was done. chances are your bolt is shot so just cut it and buy a new one. as far as swingarms go. i just bought a used one and as soon as i get it on i will rebuild mine and sell it if u r interested.
