Handy hint, especially during summer. Spray the front area of the bike with AG interior cleaner. Leave it for 5 mins All the bugs come off without a trace. No scratches. Spray off, clean as normal.
Great video as usual! A fun trick I like to use for cleaning my wheels is Krud Kutter (available in the US at Home Depot) combined with a Magic Eraser. For me, it’s mind-blowing how well it works to remove the brake dust and carbon residue left by the brakes.
Hay man, thanks for watching.... good to get tips from real people, that ride... 👌 over here we don't have those products, but I am always on the look out for things that make cleaning easier.
Hey Dean, I've following your videos and just today, as I was washing my SMT, I was wondering how to do it properly. Thanks! Did you remap the bike after the cat delete?
Thanks so much for watching. 😊 there was no need to remap the bike. But it is worth noting that I changed the air filter to a k&n filter. I may well do a video on installing the cat. There is always a lot of questions about the cat...
@@LeDemiChef I would say that the sound is a massive improvement, and also I believe the k and n air filter helps with that. The bike does feel faster to me too... I Really love the sound it makes under load, and when you shift with the quick shifter. It sounds better than most of the after market exhausts and I still run the stock end can.
Hi Tony, Thanks. I don't spray any water down the pipe, and I always run my bike hot after every clean to dry off the engine and any moisture that may get down the pipe. Plus it is worth to note, that petrol (Gas US) has a high water content, and there is often water build up in the exhaust when starting and running any engine for the first few mins. Plus this isn't like washing an off roader (moto X bike), where you might use the pressure washer to wash off tons of mud. for that I would defiantly agree with your comment and add a bung. But for what I am doing here, a tiny bit of water wont matter in the exhaust can. I think more water could get in the pipe if it was standing in a heavy rain storm... Thanks for watching man....🤩
@@geecee4746 I have to say it... It is possibly the best bike I have ever had.. I just hope that they make a 990 smt next year... and that it is even better...

@@dean-does-stuff-81 that cat runs awfully warm, that is probably why 🥲
@@dean-does-stuff-81 since remapping isn't necessary I just ordered one, would be interesting to hear about your opinions on the before and after!

@@LeDemiChef I still get some heat from that area, but it is an improvement for sure...
Hi Dean. I always cover up tail pipe hole. Dont want to get that wadding wet!

Love riding motorbike, hate cleaning motorbike 😑
Exactly... but as you can see, it was super easy to clean my SMT. Especially if you do it regularly... Thanks for watching 💪
@@dean-does-stuff-81 the smt will be my next bike, i got a test ride and i love it
