Re: Best lube for Clutch?

cable lube, they sell it a the bike shop. I use it on my quad for ice racing. I'm afraid to use chain wax because its so sticky, and I ride in the cold where chain lube turns to molasses

Re: Best lube for Clutch?

So my motul chain lube will really work better than wd40? I've never used it for that before

Re: Best lube for Clutch?

WD40 would be bad to use because it will dry out the cable completely, WD40 is formulated to get rid of all moisture...Its good for cleaning stuff and does nothing to help lube things....Get yourself some proper cable lube in a spray can

???? it draws out moisture ,so metal dont rust.and lubricates...its not going to dry the metal out,ive always used wd 40 for my dirtbikes and streetbikes .i use it on my throttle cables too makes them real snappy
