  3. Its a good thing to keep threads and splines well greased. Most people
    here use a anti-seize grease.

  4. It should help with making noises go away, and it will allow it to be
    taken apart easier after. I do hub splines, pedal threads, and
    seatpost.

  7. Grease your crank splines.

    New KH's don't come with the pedals installed. But they have a dab of
    grease in the pedal threads of the crank (nice touch IMHO).

    As a general point in mechanics, in any device, grease splines. The
    only exception is if you have reason to believe the grease may
    contaminate another nearby part (brake linings etc). Grease and splines
    are like beer and pizza.🙂

    I have a small jar handy in my toolbox, that I filled with grease. When
    I reassemble parts on my motorcycles, I grease the threads. This does
    not cause the part to loosen. It actually helps it tighten up better.
    Then it seals out corrosion, so years later it can be taken apart
    again. Most mechanics will not do this for their customers, because it
    takes more time. But I always do it for myself.😄
