    Goddamn bugs

    Whats the best way to remove splatted insects from my jacket and boots etc? Anyone got any tips? I'm pretty sure there must be a big sign on me somewhere saying "all bugs please commit suicide here" as even when I go for a short blast I get covered in the frikkin things.

    Cheers, Jeff.

    The search feature above is often helpful when looking for information.

    Riding alongside the Hutt River just on dusk in the summertime is sometimes very mucky indeed.

    you would think...if they can engineer a bug to be useful then why dont they make them fly faster and go with the flow of traffic

    Currently I use Nikwax footwear cleaning gel. Only 'cause it came with the last bottle of tech wash that I bought...

    Good old soap and water does it for me. Available at any supermarket and faucet.

    Waikato at sunset. Better leave the visor down.




    Just go for a ride in the rain. Works for my leathers.
