how do you clean up your trike?

[rob0781]

Just wondering how you guys clean your trikes up too look perfect?I have my 185S up for sale and i washed it but being 22years old it still looks dull so i cleaned up the plastics with WD-40 and it looks great now i'm wondering would WD40 work on the frame as well?i been doing alot of tlc to the trike to help sell it i have lots of spare parts and it's registered till dec/05 runs and looks good does $600 obo sound right?Just lookin for a bit of help and some opinions.thanks

$600obo is a very fair price where I live (U.S) if your 185 is in good shape. WD 40 will work on the frame paint to some extent. I usually just clean my trikes with a garden hose in the summer...

for getting off grease and chainwax and other grime, i've foung that Castrol Greased Lightning works great, spray it on, let it sit for a minute, and spray it off, use a little brushing if needed. But it gets it looking spic and span. But you cant leave it on bare aluminum too long or it will turn it white, but any good cleaner will do the same thing.

heres some pics from a few minutes ago just to give ya's an idea,does it look like i could possibly fetch $600 for it?I have it advertised for $600obo and haven't gotten any calls yet.

well.. in the US I would buy it for 600.. that seems like a good price for it.. they ahve a 250SX in the local classifieds for 850.00 so 600 sounds about right..

Hey Rob. you got it in the supersaver ?

I think you'll get it if you wait long enough. As with anything, the lower the price, the faster they go ! LOL.

Hey Rob, sounds like a good price for a 185s that runs well, presumably.
Hope you're getting another one?

simple green will remove alot of the dirt quickly and easily
