That metal sort of nipple looking thing on the top of the swing arm sleeve, center of bike? How do I get the grease into the fitting/nipple? If I need a grease gun what type size should I get? Thanks guys! -Cory

Should be a standard automotive grease gun.

Ok I got the grease gun but the grease fitting on my bike is in a awkward position. It is pointing straight up in the center of the swing arm sleeve directly behind the rear suspension. I think I need to get a grease fitting that aims to either side so my grease gun will connect to it. -Cory

You can buy them at auto parts stores or hardware stores with different orientations. They just thread in like a screw.
I replaced mine with an angled one. Allen

Hey pizzarider, that is the one I was talking about, but the guys already said that. The fitting is not at a very good angle. Putting an angled one in will be the best option to allow for greasing.

8mm is sticking in my head. That was a while back and I don't remember exactly.

I would think it is a 8,9, or 10mm wrench, but may be a 5/16" wrench.
I will take a look to find out. I remember it was tough to get too it. Allen
