Lubricant assistance oh wise ones...

Post by dunslair » Mon Aug 10, 2009 9:04 pm

My aft is making a farty noise when it goes up and down....I think it could do with a bit of a lube :D Could anybody tell me which is the best stuff to use :?: I have a few types of wet and dry lube for the bikes in the garage, but dont want to risk making a mess of the top when the material folds in past the rail.
Assistance greatly appreciated.

Thanks

David.

Crisp & Dry in a spray, squirted on the rams & runners seems to do the trick.
