The guard dog is great stuff but locally you can find Bel ray waterproof grease. Auto stores and MC shops have it. Not many still use Honda's Paste.

Thanks guys I will order one of the suggested paste, I want to do the maintenance correctly and after reading and reading I was confused about the paste. Where I live in south Texas Mexico border, motorcycle dealers and shops are scarce and then limited.

I had 34 yrs, mandatory retirement at 60, so I had to go. I was Shift Commander, so I didn't have much physical work anyway, but it's a state law in Kansas for paid departments. I agree about best job ever!  Hoser http://www.topeka.org/tfd/ |

Last name don't ring a bell, Fudgie, but I've been gone since 03, plus if he was on one of the other 2 shifts, I might not have met him. 72 FF on each shift, 12 eng. companys and 5 trucks and aerials. hoser |

He works for Witchata (sp). For some reason I could only think of 3 cities in KS and w wasn't one of them. |

We'd talk fire stuff all night. Super nice guy. Ended up seeing him again this year. Had a good time again. He told stories about his firehouse and we laughed so hard we cried. Hooking up again next year out there. Kinda neat how we meet once and a year later we remember names and leave off where we stopped last year. Were staying in touch now. |
