Default URGENT-grease for clutch

I was wondering if anyone knows if I can use grease available from a local parts store instead of the "high temp urea grease" called for in the Helms (pn 08798-9002) for use in lubricating the release bearing, slave cylinder, and where the disk contacts the main shaft. The local Honda dealer didn't have any. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

You can try A&H Motorsports. They'll most likely have it...but you'll have to wait a while, which sucks.

I had the same problem as you. Some people recommended using wheel bearing grease...which is what I did. No problems so far. Just try to get the one that can withstand the highest temp out of all of them.

I used super high temp wheel bearing grease. I bought some urea grease from Honda for next time.
Funky green grease...

"Just try to get the one that can withstand the highest temp out of all of them."

Thats exactly what I did-slick 50 one grease "fortified with slick 50 PTFE chemistry" (ooo-ahh factor) and a dropping point of 550 degrees F. Thanks people.
