I’m an idiot and need to know how screwed I am…it looks like I’ll be removing a lot to get it lined up again but hopefully someone has some pointers. I removed the triangle cover above the driver side foot peg and now I have no clue what the easiest way to get the driveshaft lined up properly. Does anyone have any words of wisdom?
 
It’s a cover/plug type deal. It looks like it’s used to help keep everything inline as it rotates. I got it pretty close last night but not quite. I’ll throw a little grease on it after work and it should work itself in.
 
This?

So what you're saying is that you removed the swing arm shaft on the left side and can't get it to go back in?
 
Yes! Thank you! That is exactly what I’m saying! Haha! I looked at a few different diagrams and couldn’t find what I was looking for. I can get it in but can’t quite get it to line up with the driveshaft where it sits flat to bolt back in. I wasn’t sure if it was just trial and error until it worked or if there was a tried and true method to slide it right back in.
 
Maybe get someone to wiggle the back wheel while you try to work it in. Remove any corrosion and crud, then apply some grease. Hth
