June 30, 201412 yr Had the same problem on my 2013 Factory. Put plenty of ease out fluid all around the knuckle joint, leave to soak for 24 hours. Remove kick start to leave the knuckle joint, do not level against casing as it may crack and that's £100 to replace. What you need is a two leg puller to side behind, use an allen bolt and screw/pull off. A couple of taps before you start seems to loosen the seizure. Apply plenty of copperslip before you re-assemble.
