Do you Think Its Worth it?
Saw this greaseable shifter shaft from Pingel:

Best and cheapest idea. Earlier bikes came with a grease fitting already there. My 2000 has one.

The reason I was told that there is no longer a grease fitting in there is the grease traps dirt in there and that is worse than no grease. I don't know if that is right just relaying a message.

I'd say the real reason is because HD can save 50 cents on production of a new bike and then, they can sell you a new cover when your old one is wallowed out from the lack of grease on the shaft.

Any chance of posting this with pics of how he did it? Would love to see this.
