I wonder why. Do modern shaft-drive bikes not have the same lubrication needs as our ‘old’ STs?

Hi Simmo50

I have moly grease I  bought from supercheap I think.
I used it on my back end when I  replaced the rubbers. Worked fine.
6mths ago and use it every day.
Im in Balcatta if you want some. After hrs that is.
Cheers
Greg

Greg, remember Molly grease is only 2%(or less) Mollydisulphide, Molly paste is 50-60% .  Molly disulphide even lubricates when dry.
