Are there any alternatives to the special tools?required to remove the swing arm and engine? a punch and hammer for the swingarm seem to work but what about the ones that are recessed into the frame??

Special tools usually make the job a lot easier. You can also get by without them, but it tends to mess up the finish of the hardware.

Talk to you local mechanics to see if there is a tool supplier in your area that carries alternatives to the Suzuki tools.
