    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

So i was just wondering is it ok to take your bike to a car wash or should you only hand wash lol sorry i just dont know so i thought id ask before i screwed something up :o
thanks
aaron reid
 
you can take it to a car wash you just have to be a bit care full with where you stick the wand and it is best to let the bike cool down and that is generaly best done at home.
 
what should i not aim the wand at lol just so i dont go aiming it wrong lol
 
You soak down the ignition and you will be there a while.;)
 
Soem of the stuff to avoid should be rather obvious, but:
don't spray directly at your gauges
don't spray directly at your ignition switch
don't spray directly at your handlebar switches
don't spray directly at your seat (might punch a hole through a weak spot)
don't spray directly at right angles to any plastic panel (plastic can be brittle, you might break it or strip the paint)
don't spray directly onto a HOT engine (kinda rules out riding to the car wash, eh?)

.
 
the rare times i wash my bike, or maybe i've only done this once--I cant remember i just use never dull on the motor and that area and wheels and wax everything else. I would suggest this also
