Can someone tell me if the swing arm pivot shaft must be removed in order to remove the clutch slave cylinder on my 2012 Stelvio NTX
Thank you
 
Removing the swing arm will give you better access. Also if you haven't greased the swing arm and suspension bearings yet this would be a good time to do that task.
 
From memory, as long as you have a tool to get to the bolts, you do not need to remove the swing-arm. You might have to pull the shock. Per what John stated above, it is worth the time if you haven't previously done so, as the swing-arm bearings from the factory have little to no grease.
 
Hey Guys, thanks for the help,looks like I'll pull the swing arm and grease the Brgs,
any suggestions on a good grease to use ?

I like using Amsoil synthetic grease. Water resistant and really sticks. http://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-product/grease/synthetic-water-resistant-grease/?code=GWR3P-EA To do the swing arm bearings I use a bearing packer as the bearings have a seal on the side you would hand pack from. http://www.amazon.com/Lisle-65250-B...417836853&sr=8-2&keywords=bearing+packer+tool The pivot bearing can be done by hand. Only push out about a third, grease, then push out the other side. You don't want to have the needles fall out.
 
I was going to recommend the Amsoil water resistant grease also. That is what I use on all the bearings on my bikes if they are not sealed or run in oil.
