I'm wondering if anyone has preferences on grease to use for the swingarm and steering head bearings?

I've been using Bel Ray waterproof grease for almost 40 years without any problems. I use it on everything.

Belray or Castrol waterproof . All good :) ,get some now and move on to the next servicing hassle .Cheers    Oh the "Marine " versions are very slightly less of a poo to the "enviroverymentalists"  but cost premium price.
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
