If you've got the front mounts out, you might want to put a jack under the engine to relieve some of the pressure off that rear mount. If all 70+ lbs of that engine is on those mounts alone it will be difficult at best to get that bolt out. Once you get one side out, it will for sure jamb.

I think your saying that you have the nut off,but the bolt is stuck in the motor,right?If so put a blunt brass punch on the the bolt and tap it out with a hammer.

leave the nut on when you hit it with a hammer thou, that way you wont mess up your threads, but if you end up ruinin it, i got a new bolt ill sell ya

Yep, Sick's right. Put a small jack underneath to take some pressure off the motor and keep it from falling, then take a long blunt punch and tap it out with a hammer. A long thin punch is a necessity in any toolbox.

Sredish, Id kiss that bolt goodbye. If your talking about the bolt that goes thru the swingarm then by the time you get her out its going to be garbage. It took a lot of coexing with a large sledge hammer to get mine out. Basically there is a sleve in there which the bolt runs thru. the sleve is gets jammed in there and then the bolt rusts to the inside of the sleve. Your going to need the swingarm pivot bolt kit which is around $45. I could be wrong on which bolt you are talking about though since my banshee is at the chromers so I cant go out and look to see for my self. Good Luck with it.

Well, we were talking about the rear engine mount. That one can be tricky because with pressure from the motor, the rubber mounts can hold onto the bolt pretty good.

 

I also tapped out my rear swinger bolt with the same punch. If yours had to be sledged, then it lost the grease and seized, I didn't have that problem with mine. While it was a little rusty, I simply tapped it 3 or 4 times and there was enought to pull it on out. I'd recommend to anyone, getting a grease zerk into that pivot point. Anyway, that's for a different thread...
