It warmed up here this weekend and melted all the snow leaving about 2 inches of slop on top of the frozen ground which made a great day of riding. I took these pictures after about an hour of riding and running off some of the mud in the parking lot.

Thank you, but she's nice and clean now. As much fun as it is to ride, I hate putting her in the garage covered in mud.

after you get them all clean spray the engine with WD-40 it seals the metal from corosion and makes it easier to clean the next time

I do...on the way home from riding. I have an electric one at home but it's a PITA to hook it all up and put it away after. Plus it doesn't have soap and I have to clean up the mud after...

Yes, I use one on all my machines. Just be careful around the radiator fins, they can be damaged with a high pressure unit if you get to close.

And if you want to leave any decals on, dont spray them at point blank range.

Which, coincidentally is an excellent way to remove them.
:yay:
