04 R1150RT having issue getting drive shaft out

[cavedweller22]

Howdy Experts,

Well a little update... after many gruling hours with no success.. I bought another engine.
I am at the point of last 4 nuts before dropping engine with tranny attached.. but..
I could not pop the driveshaft loose from transmission...

Any thoughts?

I assume you have not removed the paralever?

She looks like a beaten pinata..

Paralever off bike..
Right now the bike is suspended, going to drop engine with transmission (nearly everything else off bike), the drive shaft is not budging.

This is how I do it.
Lever the shaft to the left.


To reinstall, lube with moly and good sharp rap with a dead blow hammer from the end
