I paid $8 for a tube of the Moly60 and I haven't used half of it in 5 yrs so it really is inexpensive.
Absolutely true- a tube of that stuff is a lifetime supply for several people. And let's not forget that whenever you touch the stuff it gets on everything for a 1/2 mile radius so the small tube really does go a long, long way.
What would be a real plus would be to have moly paste in a can with a brush- in- cap. That way we might have a chance of getting it mostly on the object we intend to lube with it in the first place. Moly paste and anti- seize.... each one will tint the whole world just a little bit every time either container is opened. I think I got some on my shirt once just by walking by the tube that was at least four feet away.![]()

The Belray assembly lube is exactly that -- plastic bottle with a brush.
Finally got some of the Honda Moly 60 Paste...Whew- SO hard to find locally here in Tucson- Even got so desperate as to call the Honda shop- they were OUT, the Kawi dealers didn't have it, auto parts stores- NOTHIN! I ordered a tube on-line from Ron Ayers.com. I had to put the rear wheel back on before I received the paste. Now Im going to take it apart and do it right!
Question, BESIDES the splines, where should I use the Moly? I ask becaues I noticed some lube on the outer rim of the wheel hub. This may be because there is a lip there and it's only where some of the grease collects as it 'spins out' from centrifugal force. Thx Tom
... opened a new tube of Honda Moly 60 Paste from a sealed package. The darned thing was only half full ....Even if you had really only received 1/2 a tube, chances are you'd be leaving some of it to your heirs when you die. A little goes a long way. (That is, if you are only using for yourself, on one or two bikes. Professional mechanics can disregard my response.)
What's the torque spec for the rear axle nut?
