Breva V1100 ignition switch
« on: March 26, 2016, 04:43:14 PM »
The ignition switch on the B11 is a tad sticky.
Any reason why it shouldn't be treated to a shot of WD40 or similar?
Cheers

You might consider a specific lock lube. It's usually graphite suspended in light solvent. The solvent acts as a vehicle to transfer the graphite to the working bits. When the solvent dries up- you're left with nice slippery graphite.
