Seems crazy to me as it's just general mechanical common sense and good practice but manufacter these days seem to hold back on grease...

It's nothing new as I have an XR400 from 2004 and even the legend that is HONDA didn't put enough grease on the rear swing arm spindle and they seized if you didn't sort it soon enough....

I know it is something you shouldn't have to do but as a matter of course I get my trusty tub of grease out and go over any bike I buy, new or old.

That said mate, if the bike is in warranty then kick their arses until it is sorted out properly and tell them you want everything greased and greased again...

if you have any issue contact customer services and they will beat the dealer up for you.

Wear and tear my ar$e. the stearing head bearing is probably the least used bearing in existence.
