I've done this to the past 4 brand new motocross bikes I purchased. They BARELY use any grease on the suspension bearings from the factory. You "should" completely dissasemble the suspension components and add a reasonable amount of lube. My secret recipie for long bearing life is a 50/50 mix of synthetic marine grease and antisieze. Oops, I guess it's no secret now... :retard:
