The front "large" cup is for the clutch release bearing.....uses transmission oil and should be serviced every 20 hrs.
The two "small" cups are for the steering clutch release bearings....uses same oil as main crankcase and should be serviced every 10 hrs.
These cups should have some wicking material in them to help dispense the lube.
You should invest in some service manuals.
