    Lightweight Lithium Soap Base Grease



    a d v e r t i s e m e n t

    I've been using Lithium Grease, NLGI 2 Grease (and or Mobil 1 synthetic gease) when and where the manual calls for it, mostly in the axles and other places.
    I'm finally getting around to checking my swingarm bearings, and rear shock linkage bearings.
    The grease I'm using seems a bit on the thick side, and the grease that was there looks thinner.

    There's also spray type white lithium grease, but this seems too thin.

    So what's everyone using when the manual calls for lightweight lithium-soap base grease.
    I could be over thinking this...


    Thanks,
    Dan

    You could be over thinking this!
    I use Motul or Suzuki.
    Just use it!

    Ok, Motul Tech gear 300 right? That's an NLGI 2 grease. That's what I'm after. If NLGI 2 is the right consistency/ thickness.
    Thanks
