Dirt bike cleaner

[oldskool]

jeez what a bunch of girlies! So I may as well chuck my dirty laundry habits in as well! I use whatever is handy, be it dishwashing liquid, dog shampoo, sugar soap whatever. I lathe it all up with the water blaster foamer thingy and give it a good scrub with the cat poo brush then blast all the crap off. After that I product condition it with a spray of CRC/WD40/keroseneoilmix, again whatever is handy. Can't remove the rust but the light film of oil sure keeps that wet look goin on the plastics and vinyl.

Shit all I use is washing powder disolvec in a bucket of water a brush and then a hose. Works well for me. Simple and cheap is good and not to keen to spend hours cleaning bike. Gonna get some dynamo when shopping this week and see if any better than what I use.

After reading the entire post each to there own I suppose, I must admit the pro clean stuff does seem to work though.

At the moment I'm using car wash, would be keen to give something else a try though.

Try Dynamo, you won't regret it.

Try Dynamo, you won't regret it.

I've been Carefully blasting the main shit off, then hand spraying the bike with cleaner and cleaning with a carwash brush. You got to brush them or the end result just isn't good enough. Then a rinse of with the blaster, deliberately bought a $149 cheapie so the pressure is only enough for cleaning not blowing the seals to bits. Then the chain gets oiled and the bike CRC'd. Only takes about 1/2-3/4 hour per bike or so after a ride.
Filters usually stay in till the prep for the next ride. But they always get rinsed out in Kero then washed in a bucket in washing machine powder and dryed and re oiled.
Also make sure the bikes are cleaned as part of our on the day routine. They never go back into the garage filthy! The kids hate me for it, but it certainly helps to clean them before the crap welds itself on!

Do you pre mix the Dynamo Danger and spray it from a squirt bottle??
What mix do you use 50/50?
And do you blast the main shit off first or dynamo over the lot?
Is the detergent in the Dynamo hard on the plastic colours?

LOL! Tell me your secrets!!

I think its already been said but for the old and infirm amongst us I blast the worst of with the hose, then half a cap of Dynamo in a 500ml sprayer gets sprayed on and left for about 10mins, then it gets hosed off. Sometimes if the clay is a particually sticky one and there are some stains left a second application might be needed or a rub with a soft car wash brush but usually not needed. Plastics come up good but Brakleen and a rag works good on those boot rub marks on the side panels.
Plastic bag on the air filter, exhaust bung in place, be sure to dry the water of the fork legs, those minerals in water (the ones you see on your cars paint work after washing if you don't dry it) are sharp and will wear out your seals plus make the forks sticky (as will simple green and other citrus based cleaners and degreasers).
Then run an oily rag (motor oil works best, fork oil gets sticky when exposed to air) over the fork tubes. Don't forget to remove the plastic bag from the filter and don't bother to run the bike after cleaning it, most wear on an engine is when its cold.
WD40 or CRC on the foot pegs and chain and rollers and any exposed metal.

ah ha thats the bit I missed! Cheers!
I do pretty much everything else though! Only thing I do you havn't mentioned is every now and then clean the cleaner reisdue off the brake disks. I found on the Cr250 it caused a problem.
