[ST] While I'm at it

I have both wheels off the bike for new tires. I figure that since they
are out of the way I can lube things up.
Any suggestions on how to lube the rear bearings and what type of lube I
should use. I can't see the buggers, but I know that they're in there.
Also what is the suggested lube for the front bearings and the
speedometer pick-up? I can see them clearly.
Any other suggestions for what I should do while I'm at it? I already
inspected the brake pads and I'll be cleaning the calipers and pistons
as well as the areas of the bike that I normally can't reach.
And in case anyone was wondering: Metzler MeZ6's from SWMoto*. The front
MeZ4 was severely cupped and just about out of thread (it out lived two
rears) and the rear was plugged about 4000 miles ago and had finally
developed a slow leak.
*Cheapest that I could find. There are other places with lower prices
but they all charge a lot more for shipping.
