Anyone know how to lubricate the rear swingarm. My last bike had grease nipples, my r1 does not, or at least i cannot find it.

To the best of my knowledge there is no grease fiting on th eswingarm,the bearings should be sealed. I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong

about the only thing you can do is remove the swing arm and lube the bushing and needle bearings but for the most part you shouldn't have do it unless you got mass mile or do a lot of rain riding , or if your into fording rivers on a r1:p
