Lubing throttle cable
Is it ok to lube the throttle cable with WD-40?

Surgi-lube is a better more economical solution to KY (free to me). It is readily available at my workplace and if I have enough interest, I will begin distributing immedialtely! They come packaged in unit dose easy-to-open 1oz. foil packets!

Trauma have you been dipping into the Amil Nitrate again? :eek:
Although I could use about 10oz's of the surgi-lube though!

too late... I tried a silicone lubricant on my clutch cable and that busted at the last race
