    I tend to wash it with my kids. A good weekend or after school activity. I also get my kids to help grease the chain (put it up on the centre stand, one can spin the wheel while the other sprays the grease on).

    Also, on an older bike I didn't used to wash it as often, and then when it came to cleaning the wheels it was always a major.

    How timely...

    I just cleaned the KTM on Sunday evening, the poor thing needed one.

    Last time I cleaned it was in Invercargill, early January, but it did get a clean late February/early March from the shop, when they worked on it...

    Therefore, it seems its every few months, but its a KTM, they look good dirty, and love getting dirty
