NNNNNOOOOOooooooooooooooo


One must never clean a GS, Things happen they do, things like, CB shaft bearings suddenly fail, and chains suddenly strech beyound serviceable limmits by 3 inches.  Cam chain tensioners suddenly give up. or worse of all, Goats syndrome takes hold. ive learnd, never let soap and hosewater hit the bike. rain is ok, and degreaser is ok when done to individual parts for repair or maint. and NEVER, EVER, be seen carrying a scrub bush while walking to the bike.

Yeah, cleaning is a pain although I just discovered that the wheels on the K75 are silver....the day before I put it up for sale.
Also the fairing is dinged and there are no chicken strips.......must have lost them somewhere down the road.

you must quickly without fail drive through acouple of puddles for some splashes of mud on wheels.  if you dont do this within 1 hour of washing, then your done for.   If it rains inthat time frame, your safe.
