The Max owner's manual says that the throttle cable needs lubrication. I have seen those $20 + shipping kits on the internet, but can't find anyone local who has what I need to get the job done.

What do you folks do to keep your throttle cable lubed?

Thanks,

Bud

I won a cable lube system at Humphy one time and it works great. It comes with a can of lube and a little clamp that goes over the cable and has a hole for one of those litte straws that come with WD40 so you can force the lube into the cable housing without it going everywhere. I recomend it and I think it is available from Recreatives. Probably from the local shop as well.
