I'll keep lubing it though Remember if it's made HEAPS of difference double check you put the hoses back on correctly. I was getting mad flutter way earlier than usual (15PSI tune) and realised I'd left the hose off like many before me, and I've done the lube up heaps of times now. Got distracted by cleaning other parts during DIY service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
