How To Wash My Motorcycle

Washing a motorcycle is quite an important task in our daily lives, especially if we are one of those bikers who love our motorcycle more than anything in the world.

For many people, the motorcycle is like another daughter in the family. A vehicle in which they can feel free, young again and enjoy speed while the wind blows in their faces.

The bad thing about motorcycles is that, like everything that is used a lot, they get dirty. In these cases I have met everyone, some who take care of all their motorcycles as if they were children, since they clean them every day and keep them spotless.

Others, on the other hand, have them completely neglected, full of dirt, which greatly damages the aesthetics of the motorcycle, making the motorcycle no longer as beautiful as it was when it was bought new.

The motorcycle must be cleaned, since dirt is not only capable of spoiling the aesthetics of the motorcycle, but also has other more serious consequences, such as corrosion of the bodywork, damage to internal parts of the engine and damage to the electronics of the motorcycle. the motorcycle.

In the end, not cleaning can be very expensive, since your favorite vehicle could end up totally damaged due to a bad practice that costs nothing. Surely you do not want to spoil your motorcycle, so I do not see that you have any compelling reason not to clean your motorcycle, so you should do it yes or yes from now on.

Instructions to wash my motorcycle

1. Clean the dust: The first thing we are going to do to clean the motorcycle is to clean the outside, that is, clean the dust from the outside of our favorite vehicle. Dust is one of those things that seems harmless, but can be harmful if it accumulates too much. The dust accumulates very little by little on the motorcycle, causing remains to remain on the motorcycle, greatly damaging its aesthetics. This practice is done by passing a dust rag over the motorcycle, to remove the small dust particles that may have stuck to our motorcycle. We are going to do this every day, since that way we are going to make sure of two things. First of all, we are going to get into the habit of being clean and careful people with our motorcycle, making it less difficult for us to do big cleanings. Second, we are going to eliminate the little dust that is there every day, making it so that there is no not a single speck of dust on our motorcycle, which will prevent it from accumulating dust.
2. Clean dirt: When we have a motocross bike or we really like to travel through dirty places, we must clean our bike a little more often than other people, as well as more thoroughly. Cleaning the dirt from our motorcycle thoroughly is essential if we have a very dirty motorcycle from the field, to prevent this dirt from accumulating and above all for aesthetic reasons. We will do this with soap and water, rubbing on the part that we want to clean and rubbing hard until there is nothing left. Be very careful with delicate areas such as the engine and electronics, in which we are going to touch as little as possible. Before starting the bike, we are going to let it dry for a while, so that the water does not go into the electrical system and that there is no possibility of some type of overload or something similar.
3. Vacuum cleaner: Last but not least, we are going to use a vacuum cleaner to remove the last part of the dust that has remained on our motorcycle. This will make our motorcycle completely free of dust, both inside and out. The cloth does not manage to catch all the dust particles, in addition to not reaching those inside the motorcycle. For this reason we are going to use the vacuum cleaner, since the vacuum cleaner can trap all the dust particles and leave the motorcycle clean. First we are going to clean the outside of the bike and finally do it inside, at very low power to avoid damaging any internal component of the bike. We are going to do this approximately once a week, as well as cleaning it with a cloth with soap and water, unless we have gone on a long trip, in which we will have to clean it before and after it.
