Would it be safe to use a Stop and Go style pull in wash place, and use the pressure hose to clean around the engine and under the frame...Hard to reach places, etc? I've seen moto-X bikes in the backs of trucks, but never noticed if they also washed the bikes... Or just stick with hand-wash, degreaser, soft brushes, etc? Thanks (Message edited by surf_boy on March 23, 2007) |

I do it. Just stay away from wheel bearings, air intake, open area under seat, inst cluster, handle bar controls. I don't depend on it to actually clean the bike, just to get those spots that hand washing won' cut it, like under the fenders, the muffler, and the rims. |

Target only the dirt, do not give it a general wash over with high pressure washer as this can inject water into you exposed bearings like the wheel bearings and the belt tensioner bearings and maybe the headstem bearings which can cause the bearing to rust with results you dont even want to think about, I just blast off the mud then hand wash the rest then polish, hope this help. |
