Excellent thread, I need to do this. I already got some Honda high temp urea grease (I think that's the right type). I wasn't even aware that the "nipple" needed to be ground down. Do you also need to do the shift fork with urea grease, or is this enough to elimate that notchy feeling?
EDIT: Honda recommends "Super Hi Temp Urea Grease" Honda part# 08798-9002

four questions:
is there any real reason for that 'nipple' to be there?
could there be any side effects for grinding it down?
how did it get there?
where do i get the grease from and does anyone know a product no.?
Thanks!

Answers are IMO 
#1 - The reason the "nipple" is there is because the cup has a dimple in the centre (visible in the picture), so it doesnt wear there and forms the nipple on the rod.
Nipple & dimple are eachothers "opposite", right?
#2 - No side effects I can think of, smooth = better
Don't grind it down millimeters, just the surface to polish.
Start with 800 grid sandpaper or so and get a can of elbow grease
#3 - It got there because of wear (and lack of grease)
#4 - Any automotive store should have some high temp / EP grease.
Molycote is a brand that comes to my mind.
You're welcome

Hey all,
My clutch pedal has been feeling very rough. You would depress the pedal all the way then bring it up slowly and it would stick and feel very rough down the bottom.
After not driving it for over a week it started to squeak everytime i pressed the clutch pedal down aswell!!
