2014 RT-S front upper and lower A-arm grease (zerk) fittings... Missing???
So, I read in post on here that the grease fittings on the front upper and lower A-arms are hard to get to and may need special fittings on the grease gun. To make a long story short, I have two of the recommended fittings ready to go on my grease gun but... I can't find the cock-a-doodie-grease fittings! I'm looking on the short tubes that run relatively longitudinally with the center of the bike axis that are welded to the end of the each of the "A"-arm. I have even used a mirror thinking that maybe it's directly behind it in a spot that I am certain is impossible to access regardless of the gun's fittings! I can't find ANY grease fittings on any front suspension moving parts. I looked at the shop manual I have and it shows them to be exactly were I expected to find them but... they aren't there. Can anyone shed some light (or perhaps a picture??) on where the fittings are? Is it possible some of them did not have inner a-arm grease fittings at all?
Thanks in advance!

I think that the 2014 and on, do not have a zerk. They are sealed.

THANK YOU!
Pegasus and Cpt. thank you very much. The manual I have shows them. I've heard folks talk about how hard they were to get to. But, I'll be darned if I could see them. It was driving me crazy. So, no suspension greasing for the 2014's. Wish I could keep 'em greased but, as difficult as is sounded... I'm good!! Thanks again.

BRP's manual editors are terrible. If you check your Operator's Guide you'll find they have an incorrect picture of the dipstick. Now you'd think that would be one they'd be certain to get correct. Nah!

otherwise be a vulgar brawl.
