Here's how I grease RSB bushings:
Remove the brackets and bushings and clean the bar and inside of the bushings.
Wrap 3-4 turns of teflon plumbers tape around the bar where the bushing will sit. More than 3-4 turns and it will be too thick for the bushing to fit properly.
Apply a healthy amount of Marine grease over the teflon tape and on the inside of the bushing and reinstall the bushings and brackets. Marine grease resists washout and can be bought at Home Depot or a marine store. The teflon tape and grease turn into a gooey mass.
You will never have to regrease again. Well maybe not never but I did this to my Tripoint RSB when I first installed it and it's been three years without a peep from the bushings.

As far as the grease being compatible with the urethane bushings, I have had no problems and have been doing it this way with aftermarket RSB's for years and all have had urethane bushings.

Look around the internet. I'm not the only one who swears by this method.

I don't have a pic of my present RSB but this is a pic from one of my other cars (Racing BEAT RSB on a MZ3). Same difference, different car.
