As I was looking at a new RX1 and a couple Vectors at a local dealer, I am curious as to if any of you current owners of RX1's eperience any problems with the steering linkage getting stiff and binding, or is there a way to lube them effectively?

Reason I ask is on my current sled (Polaris) they have grease fittings, which I didn't see any on the Yamaha's.

From experience with my '03 Yamaha motorycle, it seems Yamaha is pretty light on any lubrication of pivot points.
 
Yes, I did experience some stiffness in my steering on my 03. My brothers sleds (6 in all) did not experience this, I removed the collar and lube the bushing. The collar I am taking about is the top one on the Horizontal streering column
