Default Dont forget to lube your tubes!!!

So i have been off to college for the past 4 years and the 250 trailboss has been out of my hands. I got it back and have been riding it for the past couple months. I noticed that it was really hard to stear and you had to constantly push it to the left to keep it straight. So i put some new tires on the front and decided to hit all the fittings with the grease gun. Its a world of a difference. I can drive it with one hand again like it was brand new. There was no grease in the struts at all! Just thought i would tell everyone cuz i dont see it streesed on here that much. Seems like something most people disregard when doing normal maintenence.... Get it in there all deep like and keep everything lubed up. Ha...

Can anyone tell me how many grease fittings there are on a 03 SP 700? I have only found one on the front prop shaft. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
