09 F650 Gs Twin Swing Arm Removal

I wish to be able to lubricate the swing arm pivot on my machine. Is the removal of the swing arm a relatively simple procedure or are there any difficulties I should be aware of prior to carrying out the work? Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.

I have to ask Why?

Surely the build quality of new BMW's is not that bad....

I assume bearings require lubrication, irrespective of build quality.
