If you are lucky, you can remove the swingarm bolt with WD 40 and a rubber mallet. However, my experience over the years is that these bolts don't come out...
Robert, I would replace bushings and the swingarm pivot bolt while you're at it. If the bolt has been in there since 1972, chances are it's not going to come...

Tom, Go with a 2-wire kill switch. A 1-wire switch will not ground if you are using aluminum bars. Also the rubber covered switches are better with keeping mud...
Just got my CR460 fired up for the first time in 14 years, thanks to a carburettor I picked up in the UK last week. Nearly deafened myself!! I noticed a...
Tom; If your 400 is like mine, you have a Motoplat. Connect your kill button to the large blade on the coil or the blue wire. Get ya a good 2 wire kill...
