Default Super oil?

In the manual the cables and levers should be lubed with "HD Super oil".

I doubt it's that super. What is everyone using to lube their cables and levers with?

Dri-Slide
Often found on sporting goods stores that sell firearms. You don't really want to use a wet oil that will hold/attract dirt or grime.

Default Super Oil

Seriously, The name of the product is "Super Oil". Its made by a company called Syon I believe. It comes in a pen shaped dispenser with a needle type applicator. You should be able to find it at the dealer or an Indy shop. Has worked well for me. Even MADE IN THE U.S.A.!!!!
