Drive shaft spline lube

[Mike Rocket]

Has anybody used Liqui Moly LM47 on their drive shaft splnes. I cannot find the Honda lube here in the uk.

Loctite 8012 moly-paste seems to be a good alternative

Just got done doing one of mine, with Caterpillar copper based never seize. And it is a slight ***** getting the splines lined up on the go back together. I'd read about using string, but wound up wadding up the end of the string enough to push under the spline shaft, and after some wiggling and cussing, got her engaged, then was able to pull the string wad out.

I just got done reading about this and it seams pretty good. I'd like to know the consistency (thick or thin) of it? If you have some .

I did not buy any yet. Now looking at Loctite LB 8012. I don't know what to get really.

I can't decide what is best. The Triumph manual doesn't specify. It just says Moly Grease.

The loctite works very well.
