Hello all

I am working on a 48 Indian and they have exposed kick start gears. It got me thinking. Is there a practical way to stop the gear corroding, give it a nice black colour and help with reduced friction.

Something like metal blacking comes to mind if the right finishing oil was used. I am keen to do this at home. Even if I decide not to go this way on this gear I would be interested in options. I am always keen to learn. Please share your anti friction recipes and experiences.

Thanks Steve
