    Grease fittings on bearings, advice ?

    Just replaced the swing arm needle bearings, and bearing carrier (even bought those stupid dust seals). Anyway, I put grease fittings in for the swing arm bearings, and am considering putting fittings in for the bearing carrier and triple tree.

    Is this just over kill? Am i causing a major f*%$ up? Is this a good preventative measure? Is this destroying the value of my trike?

    Thanks in advance. This forum always has good advice.

    imo i would put a fiting anywhere you can. that just proves to a potential future buyer you were serious about taking care of it.
