Well as a life long Dirt Bike and ATV rider as well, Pressure sprayers are a must when it comes to cleaning a mud cakes bike or ATV. YOu just have to know that every 3 to 6 months you must disassemble things and re-grease.

I have known friends that would never wash their bike with a water hose. the just hand wipe everything.

Myself, i perdiodically pull the fairing and body work adn wash the sucker everywhere from the gauges to the tail section.

 

I had to wrap my exhaust after the heat bubbled the paint on my lower[sharkskinz]. I also attached the wrap to the lower closest to the pipe. have had no problems since.

 

Actually to be safe, use 1.75" for the diameter due to the thickness of the heat wrap.

 

Regardless of the diameter deal. 50' will do it fine. The pictures i posted earlier in this thread were done just a few weeks ago.


Wrap from the rear toward the front to get the overlap they right way. Less likely to get picked and torn if the overlap is from rear to front.
