If they have never been greased it takes a full tube to fill the neck enough until it exudes.

Mine have been greased at every 5K service since I got her and I still had to have them replaced at 40K. . . . probably because of the weight of the springer front end. I knew they needed to be replaced because of the movement (shifting) in the front end when I turned from a stop or when I was leaning into a curve. Seems to me this is something that needs to be tended to sooner then later for safety's sake.

All the grease in the world ain't going to solve the problem if your bearings have flat spots and the races are indexed.

Just a shade over a half tube.
I've done 2 of them in the last couple months. I need to adjust mine though, I get a shimmy on decel around 30, I think my fall-away is out.
