Suzuki Boulevard C90

I have a 2008 boulevard C90. I'm trying to do my own maintenance by following the owners manual. When it comes to the greasing I can't seem to find some of the grease points pointed out in the owner's manual. So i'm wondering if I should get the suzuki service manual to help me out or would a clymer's manual work? The clymer's manual only goes up to the 2007 year so as far as i know the boulevard hasn't changed much so would it still work or should i better off to wait till an 2008 manual comes out?

These grease points would likely be things like the swingarm pivot and the neck and wheel bearings?

Doesn't seem like you would need to mess with that on a '08 unless you've already racked up a tone of miles, or unless it's been sitting in the weather....

And yes, I have found that the Clymer's manuals are more direct and user-friendly for the home mechanic than the manufacturer shop manuals. I always check the Clymers first, especially for maintenance stuff.

It's more for the ones like Gearshift link pivots and some of the other points that are recommended to be greased or oiled after a long hard ride or if it gets wet

Thanks

OK yeah that kind of stuff is very straightforward; it's basically a matter of getting to the part and lubing it up. If you're not comfortable disassembling it, then the Clymers will clear up any confusion for you.

Lube away, it will make cables and levers, etc. last longer!
