RE: Wash me
Cormanus... Didn't you post up a pic once of your bike an absolute gob mess? Maybe on the way back from Phillip Island or something? I remember it even making me cringe lol
And I agree Cormanus. Would I skip a ride just because my bike might get dirty? NO way Jose, I'm riding! It's just dirt and soap and water will get most of it off. What it doesn't get off doesn't concern me much.

RE: Wash me
i'll have to have a look Ferret. It got seriously filthy last year on the way through some roadworks, but I can't remember whether I got a photo of it.

RE: Wash me
Mad Cormanus just doesn't have the same ring to it as Mad Max, but your CB still has a bit of that edge to it regardless...

RE: Wash me
My ST got half a wash today. Wasn't supposed to rain until 2 pm. I took off at 10:30 am.. Started raining at 11:00 lol so rode for an hour and a half in the rain. Not sure it really got any cleaner but it had to wash some of the crud off.

RE: Wash me
My Griso has been down dirt roads and made it royal pain to clean. But the worst was when the grasshoppers were in force in New Mexico during the August rally. We killed millions of them! When you stopped at a light you wondered what that gawd awful smell was - it was yourself. Then clean up was fun too. Hydrogen peroxide seemed to do a fairly decent job.
I need to get some S100, looks like the bee's knees'.

RE: Wash me
while i would hate to wash that bike in cold weather and thought of hot water while doing it i did show my wife that last picturesque photo .
her reply was do you not have a polar bear club ?
The best part about growing up in Florida is i didn't have to move here when i got old.

Ferret,
In summer, during good weather, how many miles in 1 day are you able to make..?
We are not talking about record...pleasure riding with CB of course.
