      Bob, check your voice mail. I have some Honda Moly 60 lube that is supposed to be one of the best spline lubes available. You are welcome to have all you need.

      Thanks,
      Joe

          Guess I need to start carrying my phone more...

          The Honda 60 stuff is very popular on the K-bike forum. But I already have the Guard Dog 525, which is also highly rated on the forum.
          But thanks for the offer...

                  Small delay...
                  Got an email from the place I order my parts, Max BMW, and they need to order some of my parts from the main warehouse.
                  It will take 3-4 days for them to get them, then send them on to me.

                  No worries...plenty of time before the salt is off the roads....

                      Welcome weekend!

                      Should be able to get out to the garage and get some more work done today.

                      I got a shipment notice from Max BMW. Parts should be here Tuesday.
                      And the rear brake pads arrived Thursday from Beemer Boneyard.

                        Didn't get out there yesterday...but out there this morning.

                        Just taking a lunch break...and back to it. Pics to follow.

                          Alrighty...got a little done today. Still need the parts arriving Tuesday to finish.

                          Got the clutch throw out bearing, rod and arm installed.

                          Then got the swing arm in

                          Installed the final drive. Kinda a pain to get it together while getting the drive shaft phased correctly.

                          And then the lower arm and shock bolted up

                          That's all for now. Next weekend should wrap this up

                            OK...well that didn't happen...

                            Even though I have a heated garage, when it gets super cold I don't like to work out there...the cold just comes up through the concrete...
                            Plus, I had some very busy weekends...

                            Finally got back to it....today I replaced the speedo sensor, put new rear pads in and remounted the rear caliper...

                            Not much, but we are almost home...still a few weeks away from riding weather....

                              Yup! Still haven't finished due to work and unpleasant weather.
                              Plus I decided to replace the clutch cable since the boot on the bottom end was torn up.

                              So the weather got real nice yesterday and I had the new cable so away we go.
                              Even got to open the garage door and get the Miata out of my way.
                              Need to clean out the garage after I am done with this.

                                I see you've done a bit of home work. I might have to try that stuff soon.
