    I currently have a new stock bolt installed that I anitsiezed heavily. In 9 months to a years time I intend to replace the swingarm bearings and if the bolt is difficult to remove, I'm going to install a stainless steel bolt or even a greasable bolt.

    How about using a grease gun to shoot antisieze in the modified bolt. Than both sides of this antiseaze/modified grease bolt debate are happy.

    I just take them out every few months, coat them with anti-seize, never a problem. A friend of mine bought a new z400, he didn't believe me about how little grease was in the swingarm bolt. I pulled it out, there was no grease what so ever. This is great thread for any brand of atv, not just honda's. If you buy the bolts that lsr sells, they are nickel-zinc coated, as so they don't seize near as easy. Another good thing to do would be like how ktm does with their, teflon or moly coat the axle and swingarm bolts, along with all the suspension bolts. You defintely want to coat the swingarm, a-arm bolts, suspension linkage and shock bolts with anti-seize. None of these seized are fun.
