Sidestand - some disassembly required?
Is anyone actually greasing their sidestand pivot per the manual's directions? I can't get mine apart; must be high strength thread locker in there. There's a little hole that would seem to be for lubricant but not much will go in there. Any help?

I just did mine. You need a needle tip for your grease gun( auto parts store ) . It helps if you can keep the weight off the side stand when you grease it , work the side stand up and down to work the grease around the pivot pin . 5 min. job . good luck .

yep, needle grease fitting - 1/4 a shot or until you see grease creeping out either side
