Although you should never use copper grease with aluminium as the two will react. Far better to use a moly grease, or an anti galling compound. The same is true if you are using stainless bolts into ally, as in engine casings.

Oh and edit to add, NEVER use copper grease on your brake pistons when rebuilding the caliper. Use the correct red rubber grease. Copper grease should only go on the back of the pads to help prevent squealing, and pads seizing to the pistons.

Thats what I use it for, I understood it was for extreme high temperatures.
I use a general purpose lithium based grease for most other parts.
Better do some studying.....

Adventure Spec's sump/engine bars have gone up, they are �225.00 not sure if P+P is free or you have to pay

Adventure Spec's crashbars and bashplate have now been put back at the correct price which should have �199.75...not sure what happened there!

Sorry about that.

Also to answer various other questions and points regarding the similarity between the Yamaha crashbars and the Adventure Spec crashbars check out HERE. They may look the same, but thats where the similarity ends!

As for value, check out what our BMW F800GS customers have to say about our BMW parts HERE.

Ride Safe!!!
