Not that cheap, but this is what I use at the ports on the frame and rear swingarm.

There is a much cheaper option! You don't have to do it that often either.

Hi there are much cheaper mini grease guns on ebay, although they dont have the angled nozle so you need to swing the shock forward to get to one of the grease zerks. Easy enough really and saves about 30 quid.

Prep M grease here i think is recomended by turner

buy the actual turner grease gun!!!!! i have a 5 spot and i tried to grease it with a standard grease gun that my mate lent to me and it was ridiculously hard. but it's a doddle to grease it with the official grease gun once you've worked out all the funny angles you have to do to get to the zerks.
