I've ordered some new bearings, I'll have a look at the pivot shaft when I take it apart when the bearings come.
Don't forget to check the thrust/cover seals, it's bee a while since I taken them off but I'm fairly certain there's a seal built in, if it's buggered they'll need replacing and you don't want to have to do the job again

Yes, just make sure you take off any top boxes/panniers etc and bungee/cable tie the front level also be aware with lateral pushing/pulling.
The swingarm should come out fairly easily, if you're forcing anything it's wrong stop and recheck

Thank you for the advice, not done anything like this before, looked at a few vids and diagrams looks pretty straight forward, so I'll keep you updated how things go
