Pe250c swingarm

Hi. Basic one guys. Does anyone know of a brand name of the grey anti sieze for a swingarm pivot bolt. Also what order do you grease and apply the anti sieze to the pivot bolt.
Thanks for the help.

use bel ray waterproof grease in the swingarm bushes, put a drop of Loctite on the swingarm nut when you are tightening it all up. use a tension wrench and set to the right tourque

NeverSeize is an anti seizing anti galling product that is ideal for swingarm bolts where they go throughh the frame and bush bores. Loctite corp make it so readily available. Marine grease for the bearings/bushings themselves.
If you love it, lube it.

Put a grease nipple in the arm and pump grease it after each wash, this will flush the dust and crap out and keep everything like new.

This means you pull it apart, not bearings obviously, after each wash and and take to it with the grease gun?
I bought clymers manual but seem to prefer riders take on this.
Cheers all.

a biannually dismantle, clean and regrease with a good waterproof grease is all that's needed for swingarm rollers under normal riding conditions. annually if the bike is a regular racer is my take on this. headstem bearings and suspension fluids go with this regime.

Be careful to ensure the dust seals are in good nick and fit nicely. don't pack them full as a goog with grease as they may not fit back in the frame. ive played that game before.
