I really don't know how many things I check but just wanted to show an example of how I prepp my trikes for sale. I'm still not done yet. I prep them like they are my own.

This one is turning out pretty darn nice. :D

Thanks!

You don't have to wish yours was though, just get out there with the ole mitt and bucket, sos pads, brushes, wesley bleach, metal polish, mop&glo, some wax and what ever else and in no time at all you'll have a looker too!

I dont mean to make fun of you but surely you have heard of mud boggin. If anything that would hurt the engine but it doesnt even break a muffler bearing.

Just don't spray water directly into either the air intake tube or the exhaust pipe.
Also, let it dry off in the sun for awhile before starting it, helps prevent any electrical shorting.

whats a muffler bearing?

oh 125m, dont ever spray down a hot engine though, i always heard that it can crack if your motor has been run hard, and then doused with water.

I think that's a bunch of balony. So if your trail riding and come to a stream crossing where the motor will get wet are you supposed to stop and let it cool down for an hour? :lol:

Hahahaha, good point man. I've heard that after running an engine and then washing it and leaving it sit to dry can cause slight condensation inside the engine but honestly it is probably little to nothing and if you go through water while it's still running it'll dry right up. So don't worry about water hurting the engine.
