    If its the same as a 350x you need to turn the entire bearing carrier, there should be holes on one side of it yhat you can put a tool in to turn it, good luck

    dont beat the carrier with a screw driver!!! put the screw driver through the sprocket and rotate the tires to push the screw driver and move the carrier.

    do you have a bolt in the center of the rear of the swingarm? if so, remove that and loosen the two outer bolts,, and then pivot the carrier!
    Ride it like you stole it! And never look back! They are too far behind to see!
