    Engine swap 250es

    I need to pull the engine from my Big Red. Can I pull it without removing ( or at least backing off) the swingarm? I am wondering if there is room to remove the mounts and clear the driveshaft? Or is it better to remove the strange swinger bolts and get a little more room. Any help from someone who has done it is appreciated.

    You can get it out without removing the swingarm yes, when I replaced my drive shaft boot, the strange swing arm bolts did not want to budge so I removed the engine to fit it ....

    So a quick update....after some patience and finesse I was able to get the old engine out and new one in. Big red is running great and I am pleased.
