Just about a week to go, going to attempt minimalist packing to keep everything in saddle bags to avoid tail bag.
Loving all all the rain happening now, I hope it rains cats and dogs now so next week Mother Nature tank runs empty.
I used to own a car wash. Every time I saw someone washing a bike I'd tell them not to use the high pressure setting (around 1400 psi) near the plugs. They usually didn't listen.
Lots of bikes had trouble starting after
Just fucking wash it. All that fancy shit is to just get your money. Decent car wash soap and good micros and get it done.
Fucking Whale was the cleanest bike on this forum with near perfect paint and 70K miles. That's all I ever did.
