Anybody else notice the grease zerks (grease fittings) are on the wrong side on the front lower forward A-arm bushings on the 950 Sport G2?  Why would they be on the bottom where they could get broken off or covered by a skid plate?  I checked an 800 Trail and they're on the correct side (on top), so why not the 950 Sport?  My dealer showed me the parts diagram and it shows on the bottom which is crazy (however, the front lower rear A-arm bushing zerk is on the top).  I can't grease them without taking off my aftermarket OEM CFMoto skid plate, which I really don't want to do every ride or two!

I was thinking of drilling/tapping into the A-arm on the correct side where I can get to them and installing new zerks since CFMoto won't fix them.  Is that pretty easy to do and has anyone done it?  Thanks!

That's crazy. Yeah I have installed zerks on other machines a-arms Piece of cake. Just have to put it between the two bushings so about the center is fine and use the threaded ones because sometimes the hammered-in ones can come out. Just use the right drill and tap.
