    Yep, very shiny. What's that blue shit on the driveway? If it's a good "spray all over the bike and give it a rub then hose it off" bike cleaner that actually works, I'd be keen to know the name/cost etc. TIA.

    that blue shit on the ground is the sun shining off the water, i had just washed them!



    to clean them i used a bucket of hot water with "morning fresh, extra strength" and a strip of old towel, a toothbrush with same washing up liquid for the wheel rims etc and a hose to rinse them off.

    cost about 10 cents lol




    photo tip for extra gleam like i got, position yourself so the sun is reflecting straight into your eyes, like it does a light in the mirror at night. hope that helps
    i wouldnt want to be caught dead in the same grave as me.

    Oh. That's rather a let down. I was almost motivated enough to buy some of your magical blue cleaner tomorrow and wash my slightly neglected bike. Thanks anyway.

    What was this thread about? These rude thread hijackers...

    um.........er.............i needed a cheap motor to get to supermarket and back etc..........and it was cheap too!


    also the car doesnt give a damn! it does what it wants, and that includes being the typical anti-bike car! its a shocker to drive! heavy, NO power stearing etc. try one, its fun



    *disclaimer; in england it is a typical bikers anti car! you ride a bike and own a volvo you WILL get the "piss" taken out of you unmercifully for ever! they *in the eighties* were involved in more motorcycle deaths than anyother car on the market!

    ha, i wondered why it is hard to get the smell of the detergent off of the dishes!

    lol


    hey nothing wrong with washing up liquid for washing bikes! it does a good a job as any expensive motorcycle shampoo. chamois it dry (i can never be bothered) and away you go again. stuff messing about with all that expensive rubbish when ya dont need to

    You will find that over a period of time the finish on your gleaming bikes will not thank you for using detergent....

    well considering my blade had its 1st wash since ive had it just before the pic was taken, and i bought it end of june ish. it has been ridden in the pissing rain and all sorts, the bandit had only its third wash since i bought that mid may. i dont think it will matter all that much



    bikes are for riding, not polishing! aye wash them occasionally, but ride them more!
