Removing kickstart lever

I've removed the bolt, and managed to jiggle it lose about 1/2”, but now it’s stopped, and no amount of wiggling or careful levering will move it further. A small puller would likely work, but I don’t have one. Any ideas?

On my 650 Dominator the only way I can get the kick-start lever off its shaft is to hammer a wide-blade screwdriver into the shoulder split. A good dose of heat would possibly help as well. Mind out for any fuel leaks first!!!

.. and old screwdriver usually does the trick. I have a stubby one that might have been made for the job.
