And how refreshing it is in this forum to not see the long and crazy threads about lubrication that I see in otherwise very rational BMW motorcycle fora. Those guys can get into something resembling religious zealotry when they discuss lubricants.
I generally agree. Upon dissembling, my trunnions were definitely previously lubricated with gear oil, and they were pristine. So I don?t think you can go wrong with that method. However, there is a lubrication nipple on the trunnions, so for ongoing maintenance it might be easier to use the lithium grease, rather than try to fashion some sort of oil gun - although some here on this forum have done just that. Different strokes...
