Carb rebuild Z1000 A1 Lubrication?

#1 PostAuthor: 777 EMU » Sun Jul 22, 2018 10:03 am

mikuni carbs
i was wondering should i lubricate the Throttle Valve Bracket , the rose joint ball.
i have striped the mikuni carbs and sonic cleaned them but didn't clean the bracket and ball joint as i wasn't sure about lubricating the joint.

i have managed to source a replacement adjuster and referbed the other damaged one thanks to all on my previous post.
not sure that i should add this to it or post new?

go for it, light grease, gt85, wd40 vaseline etc will do. any moving parts will always benefit from a friction reduction.. just ask anyone in the blue oyster bar!! :Oo
