By Hamiltonian manipulation we demonstrate the existence of separable time-transformed Hamiltonians in the extended phase-space. Due to separability explicit symplectic methods are available for the solution of the equations of motion. If the simple leapfrog integrator is used, in case of two-body motion, the method produces an exact Keplerian ellipse in which only the time-coordinate has an error. Numerical tests show that even the rectilinear N-body problem is feasible using only the leapfrog integrator. In practical terms the method cannot compete with regularized codes, but may provide new directions for studies of symplectic N-body integration.
