My missus says i need to use more lube............on my fazer of course! 
I've learned lots about the bike but i've neglected the bits and pieces :o & my plan is to give it a good old wash down and then clean the chain, get the sprocket cover off and clean out the gunk and then try to lube up every possible part.
Ive got plenty WD40 and copious ammounts of 3 in 1 oil with PTFE (not for the chain may i add ill use proper chain lube) to use up on something so the plan was to use the wd and a toothbrush to clean out all old gunky bits and then spray 3 in 1 on every hinge, moving part, nuts and bolts and the likes.
appreciate this may not be the best ever way but my feeling is that it is better than doing nothing & using up what i've got.
can anyone offer any advice on the matter, is it just a case of spray and clean whatever i can get my hands to or is there any particular parts that need special attention or specialist substances of much high value???
cheers. Nog!

Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
