Real easy job.
Just loosen the clutch cable slack at the rubber boot covered adjustment at the front of the engine.

I greased the CRGs I got at the pivot point, rubbing point (on brake lever), and any other points that might move relative to each other. Just use a medium weight grease with a light film where it is exposed and a fair amount around the pivot.

It has been about 6 months since the initial install and still looks pretty good...I'll probably clean/re-lube at the next oil change just for good measure.
