The correct grease is Castrol Spheerol L-EPO grease. Its a semi liquid grease. You need to remove back wheel & unbolt bevel drive from
swinging arm (3 bolts) Then take bevel drive apart. Its a fairly simple job to do but there is a circlip to remove as well as bolts. Best to buy a copy of the Haynes manuual. There is no specific mention of re greasing the pinion bearing but it is a good idea to do this whilst unit is out of bike, you will need to remove a treaded bearing retainer which needs a special tool (a long hexagon nut of correct size). Again explained in Haynes.
