Was going to buy a hog blaster until I saw the price. I bought a $30 electric leaf blower for home and use it instead. Works wonderfully.

I've watched this video three times now and I still don't know how to wash a bike.... I don't own a bike ... But I'm determined to learn to wash a bike

She forgot to mention the most important thing....don't ever shoot high pressure water into your engine fins, air filter or electrical wiring or parts!

[EpicKook]

Make sure to use Harley Davidson licensed water only

When you touch to feel heat, use the backside of your hand. That way should you burn, your inside is still able to function.

I have a softail deluxe and use Tire Wet to clean my white walls. Its effortless. Apply generous amount of Tire Wet to a folded microfiber towel and then wipe ONLY the white wall (do not let it drip or run onto any portion of your tire used for traction). Wipe the the white wall off with a separate, clean portion of the microfiber towel. Every time you apply tire wet use a clean portion of the towel. If your white walls are yellow or grungy then use a blue scotchbrite sponge pad with a light scrub to restore it to white, then use microfiber towel to clean everything up. To clean bugs from my chrome and headlights I use bare 000 steel wool (no polish, just the steel wool).

I like to take my leaf blower to the bike at the end to get the water out of the cracks and crevices

Brilliant 😎 what about the other side of the bike 🧐🤓

I thought you had to use painters tape to cover the air filter so your not soaking the inside of it, saw it on a Harley Video from a dealership

I’ve been told to cover the carburetor. Is that necessary?

[reuvengarcia]

I'm going to try, the only time I wash my motorcycle, it takes me 4 hours and you only half an hour?

What was that “Hot blaster” thing during drying?

[dylanr]

What size bars are on that bike they look taller than stock?

[JeffSkymaster]

or your Leaf blower, use mine all the time.

The best thing I ever bought for washing my bike was that HOG Blaster!! Gets rid of all that water from all the nooks and crannies that a towel can reach! Plus it will prevent water spots too!!
