You actually wash your bikes? Not washed mine since having it. My "wash" is a tissue with white spirits on to clean the DEP. :D

Basic maintenance washing mate. Practically everytime i use my bike i give it a good wash.

I've noticed some real bad things whilst washing. This one time i saw that all the nuts holding the sprocket in had come loose! Couldn't believe that it didn't come off!

So now i make a point of it.

Completely agree Caldribbler, always take the bike apart atleast once a week to clean it, the amount of times i've found loose bolts etc is stupid, pays to keep on top of it, unless you're a complete bellend and dont take care of your bike and regret it when your front wheel falls off at 50mph and you die

I do bolt checks and check overs of it regularly, just don't wash it that often. Mind you, I don't go off-road and rarely ride it this lately.
