Is there a grease fitting hiding somewhere for my jackshaft bearing or do I need to take this apart to grease it?
Thanks
 

:rocks: It’s real easy thanks to this site. Remove belt and secondary. Pay attention to the shim placement! Clean with WD40. Remove snap ring. Clean again. VERY carefully remove bearing cover from between races, and I do mean carefully. Clean with WD40. I was turning the track also at this time to get more grease out from behind the bearing. Lightly blow out with compressed air. Grease with a needle greaser. Reassemble. Also get your speedo sensor. I found that it was much worse than the Jack-shaft. I’ll probably do the sensor bearing at least twice a year from now on (it’s more susceptibly to dirt and easier to get to) P.S. I used a whole large can of WD. Cheap if you think about bearing replacement.
