Finally putting my FD back on my '04 R1150RT. Hopefully I'll be able to change my oily avatar for a happier one...

My after market manual says to coat the rear U-joint splines with Permatex Anti-Seize. This does seem to be like what was on it when I disassembled it, gray, shiney, gooey.

Best to use that, or is the Honda Moly Lube as used for clutch splines, better???

Thanks
Jan...

Go with the Honda Moly.

Use a good moly paste. Most anti-seize performs poorly on splines.
