DB7 rear linkage squeak

Got back from a day ride, and the rear linkage was squeaky, sounding dry.


Shoot, any diassembly data on this linkage?

Ran some chain lube on every link joint I could find last night.
This morning the links are mostly quiet.
Wondering if the CAT heat was a factor, or if there was too little lube from the factory. The bike hasn't seen water.

Sounds like you have managed to fix the problem, seems CAT may have dried out grease
