Just an uninvited suggestion: Find out what the reservoir is for and keep the level correct. Rear brake, maybe?
Yes, lube the rubber grommets. I replaced about 3 of the little buggers before figuring that out. Put some Locktite on the screw so you don't lose the side panel completely. Heck, put some Locktite on every bolt and fastener you encounter on this thing! I say that lovingly. But crimeny--Locktite is handy for this bike.
I use the regular red Locktite.
Do NOT use red lock title on any bolt or screw you intend to remove at a later date. Blue is your friend! Red is forever.
Agree. A bit confusing, however, because the blue stuff comes in a red squeeze tube.
Color of Loctite doesn't tell the whole story. There are eight different red and eight different blue Loctite types. Some of the blue types have a higher breakaway and "prevailing" torque rating than some red types. Prevailing torque is the average torque over a full turn of loosening after breakaway.http://henkeladhesivesna.com/henkeldocs/LT-6540_AN_RemovableReliable_SS_v11_Final_Links.pdf
I think the blue that you find commonly is Loctite 243, and the red is Loctite 263, but you really need to go by the product number when you buy it.
Right. For some reason they used to put the blue liquid in a red container!
