Default Swingarm question

Last of my wintertime mods is to take off my swingarm and PC it flat or gloss black...havent decided yet.We really havent had to cold of weather so i have been procrastinating on it really bad.Anyone ever done it before know how much of a pain it is? Never really messed with it before andwould rather know what im getting myself into before i start strippin it down.Is there more to it than just the 2 pinch bolts on each side and one really big *** alan wrench to loosen the piece that runs all the way through the bike?

i did it about two weeks ago and i think it took me and my dad about 1 to get it off. nothin to it. all it really is, is those bolts you are talking about. if you do it, take the exhaust off first. then you wont have to try to go around it when you remove the swingarm like i did.

you don't have to take the exhaust off and the really big allen is really an inverten socket that you can buy at any cycle shop.
