Clutch lever only. The brake has no cable(hydraulic). Forgot to add for the clutch. Pull back the rubber that exposes the adjuster mechanism and you will see the cable running through the middle of it. Pull clutch in and add a drop of oil, work clutch a few times and the oil will migrate down. Repeat a couple times if you want.
You can also lube the throttle cables but it if a little more complicated. A good time would be when you are going to take out the slack and have your fingers in there anyway. The repair manual will give you the correct procedure to get it done right.
