    Every week I try to do something different with my bike, this week it's going to be greasing it up. Where do I need to squirt the magic lube, and what should I use? I have some pb blaster, but could get some wd40 if it would be better.

    Do the Pedal Height adjustments for the Shifter and the Brake. You don't want those freezing-up on you.

    Seat hold-downs.
    Clutch lever pivot bushing.

    I have to bow down to pb blaster. I've tried my hardest to get some bolts out with no luck. PB it...and then come out like butta.

    Rear brake pedal pivot. I had trouble with mine sticking just a bit. Needed it free to have the brake light come on with just a tap but not stay on after braking.
