Title: Time for some Filth !!
Post by: Kiwifruit on Friday, 14 April 2017, 07:02 PM
We see so many beautifully polished fine examples of the 14 on here.......as one would expect !!
But really lads when you use them every day or at least often, and in all weather they don't always look at their best.
So show us how grubby do you get your favorite motorcycle before you give them a bath and put on their makeup ??

So about the misleading headline  :stir:

Pleased we dont get salt on the roads here.
Salt and metals are not the best of friends.

Kiwifruit..

It makes a right mess as you can see in my photo. I protect everything I can with ACF50 and it certainly helps.
Brake calipers get removed and thoroughly cleaned every 2 or 3 weeks during the Winter as well ...It has to be done over here in the UK.

It's all relative Proteous.  This level of dirtiness is bad compared to how we normally keep these lovely machines.   :drool:


You might be one of the lucky ones, and get to ride a 'dirty girl' all the time. :cheers:
