Cables I use Dri-Slide. Never lubed the jiffy stand, but I know I am supposed to for some reason...the linkage (brake and shift) I disassemble and grease, and am planning a mod to add a zerk fitting to each so I can just zap them with a grease gun. The rubber covered shift linkage points I hit with the dri-slide, but not sure I am supposed to on account of the rubber. Dri-slide is moly though, so not sure it hurts the rubber.
