Grease 2

The other grease that comes recommended by many people is Honda Moly 60 Paste. I have bought it from Rubber Chicken Racing Garage, but you can probably get it elsewhere, as well. You could use this grease in place of a normal Moly and just use this and your NLG1-2 grease for everything. But, it is slightly thicker than a normal Moly grease.

I use it (by itself) primarily for clutch spline lubes. Mixing it 30% Moly 60 with 70% NLG1-2 also is recommended for the rear wheel splines.

Grease 1

For a rather lengthy rundown of all the chemicals, waxes, oils, greases, sealants, etc. that you could ever possibly use on your motorcycle, read Snowbum's article. Focusing just on greases at the moment...you really only need 2 or 3 types. The first is an NLG1-2 grease, a high pressure lithium grease. One brand of this red grease is Chevron NLG2 EP Ultra Duty. I personally bought my local CarQuest brand Extreme Pressure Premium Grease, which states on the back that it is an NLG1-2 grease. This grease is used alone primarily on bearings (steering column, wheel bearings, swing arm bearings). It is also recommended for the clutch throwout bearing parts.

I also use a regular Moly grease for most other applications that do not call for a high pressure grease.

Hardware Kit

Early on in the process, I knew that I had to get a basic stainless steel hardware kit for the restoration. These kits usually consist of all new stainless steel screws, washers and connectors for any visible components of your bike. It'll really make a difference when you're looking at the details of your finished restoration.

I bought my basic hardware kit (432 pieces!) from Hucky's, though similar kits are available from other online vendors. Everything was well marked and in individual sealed bags for convenience.
