I use a garden hose to wash my motorcycle but no spray nozzle. I just turn the spigot down low and let it run. I get a nice low flow of water but no real pressure to force water into places I don't really want it to go.

 

Honda spray or pledge ain't going to get my bike clean. It's fine for touch up on the road, but I ride the thing and it gets dirty, real dirty.

 

2.50 at the car wash and blast away.....or.....6hp pressure washer and wash it at home and use the leaf blower to dry em off......

 

I betting it will be fine.

 

Put dialectric grease on the PC connections. It's in the directions from Dynojet.

 

+1. I will never understand people that won't use water to wash a bike... its a freakin vehicle. but they can do whatever they want its their bike.

 

and the answer is???

 

I had the same issue but I had to split the connector on the side of the road and spray some electronics cleaner/drying on it. It was fine as soon as everything dried.

 

I use the hose....turn the nozzle setting to "gentle shower".....wash away..then dry with blower

 

I guess I am a little at a loss on this one. If the bike won't take a good pressure wash without grounding out the electrics under the seat, then how can you rely on it to ride in a rain storm and especially pass a truck with water spraying everywhere at 50 mph. I pressure wash mine off, removing saddle bags and spraying under the seat, tank everywhere dirt collects, then, ride it home to wipe it down and wax. If it shorts out with a pressure wash job, then something is wrong. How can you trust it?
