Just about to perform my first spline lube on new to me R100 RT. I have the correct socket to remove the swingarm nuts and burghard ? lube for the splines. In order to lube the swingarm bearings, instructions call for a needle nose grease fitting. There are a lot of fittings on the internet but was hoping someone out there has a favorite. If any one has any ideas on the proper fitting (length, diameter) please let me know. Also, if you unbolt the brake torque arm is it necessary to remove the driveshaft if you are not removing the transmission ?
Thanks for any info

Thanks Harry. I knew that someone would have the answer. Looks like Amazon will get the nod.

Here is another style needle that I have used that works really well to grease roller bears. You can slip it in between the rollers and grease them.
