Rocker Arm Shaft Removal

How do you get it out? Will it be pretty hard to pull out, or is there something else you have to do?
I am confused,
thanks

Which trike? The 200s you just put in a screw that fits and use the screw to pull it out. you can see that the rocker dowels are threaded.

Some have a pin holding the shaft in place. Your manual will tell you of the proper removal procedure.

its for the ytm, I know something threads into the rocker arm shaft but it wont budge. Is it hard to get them out?

I just started at trying to take the shafts out and I got the intake one out, but the exhaust one wont budge.

What I did was I took a piece of flat iron and put it across where the cam chain cover goes and then drilled a hole in it, put a bolt through that threaded into the rocker arm shaft and tightened the bolt. It pulled the intake out but it just ripped the threads off the bolt when i tried to take the exhaust one out.

Any other idea?

Is the head still on the motor?
If it is you have to take one of the head bolts out.There is a grove in the rocker pin that the head bolt holds in place,You need to remove the bolt to get it out.

The head is off, I'm going to see if I can find a longer bolt so it can bite on more threads, it had about 3/8" of the bolt's threads screwed it and when I tried tightening it more, but it ripped the threads off the bolt.
