I washed and waxed my Feej yesterday. :unsure: :dribble:

After about 6mos of riding a dirty bike, I just snapped!

Sorry!

I mean theres a lot of pressure when you ride with djbill and fairlaner. Anytime a dust spec gets on their bikes, they call in the detail squad. Their bikes are perfect!

I like cleaning it on a regular basis because it forces you to look at things that may go unseen before they cause a problem. Missing fasteners, oil leaks, brake pads and dead things. You can check all that stuff without cleaning but you might as well while you're at it.

Waxing may be a bit over the top. I use Pledge most of the time because it's cheap and easy.

 
That's just wrong!! Kick him off! walk the plank! Next thing ya know you'll be putting a car tire on it!

Exactly...that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Although...I have been known to wax [the bike y'all] once in a while. ;)

Is riding a filthy bike supposed to be cool or something? :unsure: I don't get it.
Sure seems that way sometimes. Not to go too far off topic, if I didn't know some of the folks it would be a sign of neglect. :blink:

I think it's an LDR/IBA thing. Lots of those folks around here. Shows that the bike is used as opposed to a poser.

Seriously....

Just remember, I have a pic of you actually cleaning your windshield. It was with an SOS pad, but still.

 
I washed mine today, but that's because the right side was covered in fork oil . . . . . Still waiting on my new seals and stuff to arrive.
