The best stuff I've ever seen for cables - bar none - is Dri-Slide. It's Molybdenum disulphide in a very volitile carrier. It doesn't harden in cold weather, and it doesn't attract dust or moisture from the air. I used to get it from Gunsmithing suppliers like Brownell's. Dale R.

All,
Motorcycle riders have been lubing brake and clutch cables on their machines for decades. The "smart" ones use a lubricant designed for the job and a small tool to force the lubricant down the cable. So, I agree, DO NOT use WD-40. It is more of a cleaner than a lubricant.
When I rode (before the advent of hydraulic clutch and brake cabling) I used one of these devices and can tell you that they work and work well...

Not bad for a 17-buck deal (shipping INCLUDED)...
