    CRC range it in New Zealand. You'd think there'd be a few stockists at least.

    That's heat transfer compound and it's not a lubricant.

    Spectron in Penrose have a range of Electrolube products:

    You want SBG20S,CG53A35SL or CG60-800G

    RS Components are a few doors along,they will have what you want too,but

    are much more expensive.

    If you want to seal the antenna connection, you should not use grease in it. Use this stuff to wrap antenna connectors. Microscopic (-130dBm) 1.6GHz signals do not take kindly to goo put in their connectors.

    If its just the 12V or other signal wiring, then just use any clean grease such as petroleum jelly, or heatshrink it with this shit.

    It's kinda like using petroleum jelly to clean your teeth, and toothpaste as a lube. [/QUOTE]

    That would certainly give you a ring of confidence
    Its not what you ride, Its that you ride

    seems you've got it sorted, but if its something you're likely to go through...
    I got a packet of 4 sachets from Repco, worked out at just over $2.00 a sachet.
    Then found a tube at BNT in Boston Rd (gone now) for around $10.00

    Thread dredge, but to add info: I went yesterday to get some bits and Spectron are now owned by Ecco Pacific and they no longer do cash sales Account only, but the slightly vague bloke I spoke to thought they might do online sales (but the person who does them is still on holiday, so don't bother trying til next week).

    A shame as that LLFA tape looks very good.
