You can grease up the rear linkages and swing arm pivot by removing one at a time so it's really easy. I suggest you do this sooner rather than later as my bike with only 5k on the clock (3yrs old) was just about bone dry - especially the swing arm pivot.
You need a centre stand though to take the weight off everything.
Head bearings were also dry.
You'll feel happier once it's all done.
