My bike is filthy, mainly coz I ride it every day, rain or shine, and stick about 200miles on every weekend. So here's the thing...

With it being winter, do I clean it? If so, is it just a sponge and MucOff in the freezing cold? Or can I Jet Wash it in the local garage? Or do I leave it till summer and just keep caking it in FS365?

What do I do?!?

Hosing off the grit and crap you collect from the roads is the best idea. Never been a fan of jet washing a bike. No idea why though Confused

The scottoiler stuff is really good so caking it in that is better than nothing. Razz

Oh and whatever you do( if you have a cover) don't cover it if it's wet as it will rust a hell of a lot easier.
