What lube for throttle cables?
Hi guys,
Excuse the dumb question but what lube do you use when lubing up the throttle cables? I'm doing the r6 throttle mod and whilst I have the airbox off it seems like a good time to lube them. Cheers |

Based on what others have recommended, I've just used engine oil. I think thats what the maintenance manual calls for as well IIRC.

Bit of multi purpose should do the trick
