Thanks.....It being a steel frame probably worries me the most. I used Yamaha Marine grease where ever I could put it in the frame...just put a sealed internal gear hub that has oil in it that I can change. I don't ride in the water. For the 1st time I sprayed the whole bike with heavy duty silicone lube just to see what it would do....as always I rinse it down and let it dry and keep it inside. I didn't realize it at the time I bought the bike that I could and would enjoy riding on the beach. Just gonna have to keep it lubed a little more than normal!
