I've heard people swear by both Yamaha Moly grease and Honda 60. The Honda 60 has been superseded by Honda M77.

I used the Honda Moly60. Great stuff.
I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

Good timing on the question. I still haven't used up all of the tube of Honda Moly 60 that I bought when I first got my R65 (85,000 miles ago) but it is running low.

All of the manufacturers of 4 wheel drive trucks have spline lube for the slip joints in the drive shafts. High load low speed sliding action.

Last time I did it I made a concoction of my own. I'm interested to see what it's like in there.
