    Hi

    I Removed the caliper on the right side, stripped everything on the Left side.
    Tried Biting it with a 600g hammer.... but it does not move at all !

    ( I guess it is seized with rust , or I"m missing something else that i have to remove )

    HELP !!!
    Any Idea's ?

    Sounds like you might need to use a penetrating oil and/or provide some heat to help expand the metal parts. There have been a few post on the VFR forums about this issue, so you are not alone.

    There was the same problem. The axis is glued to the age. Use penetrating lubricant. Screw the nut on the axis, not until the end, what would close the thread and hit with a hammer or a sledgehammer on the nut. So you don't mess up the axles. If does not help, then only to heat the axle and knock out as I wrote. After warming up, it will be necessary to replace all bearings and seals. In my case it was really bad, warmed up the metal right up to a white heat and then with a hammer beat
