General copper grease

and loctite / thread lock where required

Get a workshop manual if your building it all back up, fairly straight forward but it does come in handy

there is a PDF download of the official honda workshop manual in teh workshop section. it tells you where to grease.

Seb, you can tell you were into dirt bikes by the good quality waterproof grease, no point on putting anything else of the suspension linkages, you need to use the best if they are going under water....... I have the same on my shelf :thumbup:

I think it's called wurth chain wax I use or a light cover of general engine oil, but it's all personal preference mate

Red rubber grease for all brake-caliper related lube needs, and copper slip where you hope to be able to undo a bolt again in a few years' time.
Lastly, regular and often for all sussie linkages.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
