Bryanj:
Should be a standard 6mm grease nipple

Oddjob:
Yep, M6 x 1.00

deltarider:
Thanks. The reason I asked: in 46 years of ownership I remember only two times I have managed to get any grease in there. I've been lucky I guess: bushing is still fine. I should add that Honda had modified the parts involved somewhat on later models like mine, but I don't know if that has played any role.

deltarider:
So an ordinary grease gun should work?
Should I unscrew the nipple, check if it works and eventually clean it?

Oddjob:
Just replace. You can get stainless steel ones now so it won’t rust anymore.

Ordinary grease gun should be fine.
