Good stuff dude. I'll contribute: Motul Shine and Go. Awesome shine, shrugs dirt, smells good. Don't put shine on your front number plate if you run enduros or other series, the numbers won't stick. Silicone spray works well too. Get it under your fenders. The infamous white stress lines in the blue Yamaha plastic, from smacking trees and all - a heat gun on low makes those just vanish with a few minutes of patience. Silicone spray on your fork lowers after a wash. Let it dry on the legs and then polish it up. It's almost as slick as kashima and over time embeds into the tubes. Good video!
The only thing I’ll use WD40 for is my pipe after I wash my bike since I have a raw pipe, but I use Maxima SC1 which works the same but it’s actually intended to shine your plastics and stuff (plus it smells good too!)
Absolutely Sc1 and if you want to touch up scratches on your rims if they're blue or whatever color you can go to Marshalls and get any kind of colored marker you want
Doesnt do anything for long. Use a actual wax sealant with polymer in it or a ceramic coating. It actually lasts all riding season the ceramic will last years.
Lemon pledge is what use to shine my bikes, spray it on and rub with a rag, do under sides of fenders and rims , tire sidewalls and everywhere you dont want mud to stick. Works great on my sportsman 1000xp too.
Use Wd40 or some other brand to clean my engine on my project bike. Spray some on, use a toothbrush or paintbrush to clean. If you come to the track and it's muddy, spay some on the engine, link and other parts that's difficult to clean easily. It will make the job easier after the race
I use wd40 on the engine, chain, under fenders and rear linage every time I wash it. SC1 on the plates and shrouds. I always get compliments on how great my bike looks. It works great to keep a engine looking fresh.
Good tips bud !! We used WD under our fenders if it was real muddy out to keep it from sticking. Then we went to s light grease because it lasted longer. WFO
The insulator and shim protect the caliper from a lot heat. Your rear brake fluid is probably braking down quickly. Dark. It will help with the squeaking as well.
Try alco soap to wash your bike and maxima SC1 to polish it. It seems like one of those rip off items until you actually use it. Racing GNCC it makes clean up easy as can be.
@@robw3761 I work at a dealership that sells the products but you can order the soap off of Alco's website and the SC1 off of Maxima. I would get in contact with a local dealer and see if they offer it or get it for you.
Dude hermes a tip for u if u want your front fender Nice again, go over it with a heat Gun or propane and The White crashed/stressed plastics will become blue again, have fun PS dont melt it tho lol
Instead of WD40, I use Simple Green cleaner; I mix it 50/50 with water and put it in a spray bottle. Cheaper than using wd40, doesn’t leave any residue after cleaning. I first spray it the entire bike down good, then spray my simple green water mix all over the bike and let it sit for a couple minutes. Rinse bike off and watch the shine come-about! No brush or rag necessary to wipe down either 👍
Oh man you forgot the heat gun trick or propane torch trick to get rid of white stress marks on your plastic quickly run the flame of a Propane torch over it don’t go too slow and allow the torch to melt the plastic but enough to get that heat on it until it starts to disappear a heat gun works better because it takes away the risk of you actually melting your plastic but yes the heat will bring the color back to the stress marks on your plastic.
Heres another hack. Buy the wd40 by the gallon and fill a spray bottle. Much more cost effective. Also label the spray bottle something stupid to confuse your friends.
wD 40 iS nOt A lUbRiCaNt ... Sure seems to lubricate my cutting tools, drill bits , die grinder burrs etc just great. Just because lubrication was not it's first 'desired' purpose, does not mean it cant lubricate! End of the day its no different to MECHOIL. Which it's main desired uses are lubrication, water dispersion and corrosion protection.
Jeremy Brew : water can be use as a Lubricant but not good one same as WD40 but a little better. Tell Me where you use it and how long dose it last minutes I bet. Now in pinch I use till I could get the right lube
Dont use wd40 to shine your bike up its not doing anything for long. Just use a wax sealant with polymer in it or a ceramic coating so its actually making it shin after a single ride and it lasts months
Because most of us take care of not only our vehicles and ourselves but are dirt bikes as well as much money as you spend on these things there's nothing like having a couple of beers when you're done riding and putting on some music and cleaning your bike and when you're done standing back and looking at it
DO NOT SPRAY your engine down with WD-40 ! it breaks down and eats rubber and ESPECIALLY ENGINE GASKETS !!! Dont ask me how I know this 😫 the end result was a total top end job to my old 87 CR-500 🤬
@Shredzs Givvin'er Spoonz look up what wd40 does to O-ring chains alone, studs are made for stress tolerances so you can re-use them even if its only twice and that was from yamaha, honda, and suzukis tech guys since I like porting and polishing plus putting better valve springs in for high rpm situations where gasket lift is common after the basic mods

Diego Brah keep it from oxidizing
You can use a paper towel and fold it up and do the same thing
You can get some polish the stuff like that for it too
Pledge spray furniture polish does not leave a greasy residue like WD-40 and makes it way easier to clean as mud/dirt falls off.
Noah..that wd40 works great for shining your bike..but it does something even better..it collects dust..but it's better than nothing
Lol that's true
Silicone spray works better, it's a dry lubricant and doesn't attract dirt and dust
Doesnt do anything for long. Use a actual wax sealant with polymer in it or a ceramic coating. It actually lasts all riding season the ceramic will last years.
Not mud
Dry lube dude knows his lube !@@seewhy4395

Good stuff. Everybody just has wd 40 so its a lot easier to do but yeah I agree with you
WD is truly magical stuff, spray under your fenders to keep mud from sticking, keeps electricals dry etc etc
Use Wd40 or some other brand to clean my engine on my project bike. Spray some on, use a toothbrush or paintbrush to clean.
If you come to the track and it's muddy, spay some on the engine, link and other parts that's difficult to clean easily. It will make the job easier after the race
Exactly! Helps so much on dirty/muddy stuff
It's also great to clean Link berrings. and so on
I’m liking the socks and shoes 😂
😂😂😂
I use wd40 on the engine, chain, under fenders and rear linage every time I wash it. SC1 on the plates and shrouds.
I always get compliments on how great my bike looks. It works great to keep a engine looking fresh.
The first tip is gold.
Use a rag instead of a wrench so you don’t damage the chain or sprockets !!
I do all 5 of those already - LOL
I’ve seen people put a shop rag on the chain to have that stick in the sprocket as well
That's how I do it. Haven't ever used a wrench, but that would work out on the trail!
That's what my buddies and I use. BUT, a wrench or small branch would work out on the trail, when the only rag I have is my buddies Jersey. Lol!!
If you put wd40 on grips once it soaks in it makes them grippier
N8 m8 you fucked my bike
Good tips. Missed the dog though. I use WD40 and a Scotch bright pad to polish the pipe and swingarm to look like a new bike. Stay safe
Frank will be back soon! Yup good idea, you too
Wd40 dries up the water an helps all rubber parts like intake boots keeps them in great shape an not dried out!
You can also use silicon spray to make your old plastics shine like new
I learned a lot watching this vid thanks for sharing yeahhh dude 😎🇺🇸✌🏽
Would not recommend the bolt in the gas line as it can cut the gas line on the inside and you have that going into your engine
I love your videos. You are a talented rider. I wish I could be on your level
Keep riding man and you’ll get there!
Don’t use the wrench in the chain. Use a old rag.
Nice video, I also love your bike
Thanks man!
Ayeeee. Marionville powersports I love that place it’s cool to see somebody local do a dirt bike video.
MPS is awesome!
If you use some petrol (gas) on the sticker adhesive it will wipe of really easy then just wipe with soapy water after
Good tips bud !! We used WD under our fenders if it was real muddy out to keep it from sticking. Then we went to s light grease because it lasted longer. WFO
Good idea!
Chain looked kinked, after the wrench sprocket hack.
I believe that chain was pretty old and crusty lol It won't do that with a chain that is how it's supposed to be
The insulator and shim protect the caliper from a lot heat. Your rear brake fluid is probably braking down quickly. Dark. It will help with the squeaking as well.
Yeah that’s a great idea. I need to
Me personally use oem pads comes the shims and insulators I’ve tried lots of different pads these seem to work best. Great vids keep them coming.
I like the WD-40 use, seriously, nice hack!
Good job! Thanks
👍🏽🤙🏽
Try alco soap to wash your bike and maxima SC1 to polish it. It seems like one of those rip off items until you actually use it. Racing GNCC it makes clean up easy as can be.
I’ve heard really good things about that stuff. I guess I need to try it!
Where can you get that soap to wash your bike and you get it at Home Depot or Lowe's
@@robw3761 I work at a dealership that sells the products but you can order the soap off of Alco's website and the SC1 off of Maxima. I would get in contact with a local dealer and see if they offer it or get it for you.
Thanks I've been using the sc one for years I was inquiring about that soap I've never heard of it thank you
dont scew any bolt into a rubber pipe ,the thread will cut the rubber and bits get into your carb.
Dude hermes a tip for u if u want your front fender Nice again, go over it with a heat Gun or propane and The White crashed/stressed plastics will become blue again, have fun
PS dont melt it tho lol
I just started using a heat gun not too long ago. Works pretty well!
Instead of WD40, I use Simple Green cleaner; I mix it 50/50 with water and put it in a spray bottle. Cheaper than using wd40, doesn’t leave any residue after cleaning. I first spray it the entire bike down good, then spray my simple green water mix all over the bike and let it sit for a couple minutes. Rinse bike off and watch the shine come-about! No brush or rag necessary to wipe down either 👍
Also with the WD40 watch the brake rotors. I use silicone spray. Sikolene pro prep is nice, but Silicone spray is cheaper.
Good idea for sure!
If your like me and have black wheels the sharpie is a permanent fix lol 😂
I all ready new the we trick
Wd
😎😎😎
Sand and polish your engine parts would look great
Good video
Glad you enjoyed, thanks!
YeH hello got a question where did you got your fuel tank ? cause i have kx 125 1997 and i want to find and match bigger fuel tank anyideas?
If you have a oil spill wipe it up and spray WD40 over the specific area, then wait a while and it won't be slippery at all
Or you can just throw dirt over it and push broom it up, it will be like a spill never happened
what fuel tank are you running? how is the fitment? looks like kick stand rubs on the tank? Thanks
It's a Clarke Fits good except it makes the seat not as flat. I think the kicker was just on the wrong splines or something. No worries!
Honda polish!
Don't forget Honda water first..lol
Instead of wd-40 to restore the shine, try a furniture polish like lemon pledge. It works fantastic and is cheap.
Don’t use a wrench use a rag it’s easier on the bike sprockets
Not sure about the dirty metal fragment infested bolt in the fuel line idea!
Golf tee in the fuel line works easier
Good idea
To get that sticky stuff off of your plastics use paint thinner but don’t leave it sit on your plastics it will burn up and eat away your plastics
Zippo lighter fluid works really well also.
Huh that's a good idea
Mineral spirits is better than paint thinner it's not as harsh
You are aware that they make blue sharpies right?
I’m going riding Monday at scrub and dirt in Monroe ga active gonna be there?
I wish. I live in MO
Oh man you forgot the heat gun trick or propane torch trick to get rid of white stress marks on your plastic quickly run the flame of a Propane torch over it don’t go too slow and allow the torch to melt the plastic but enough to get that heat on it until it starts to disappear a heat gun works better because it takes away the risk of you actually melting your plastic but yes the heat will bring the color back to the stress marks on your plastic.
Yes sir that’s a good one
Hand sanitizer takes off sticker residue , like a boss...boss.
You can use wd40 to clean chain
Do you have any tips to heal a broken wrist with 2 screws in it a a broken scapular quickly ?
Stem cells.
@@innerfire-graham9016 its fixed now 🥴
where can i find that sticker set? it looks nice.
marionville powersports . It is a local shop
Heres another hack. Buy the wd40 by the gallon and fill a spray bottle. Much more cost effective. Also label the spray bottle something stupid to confuse your friends.
Very smart!
I use SC1 to make my bike shine but I’ve never heard of using WD40 to make it shine.
SC1 is good stuff!
My uncle used wd-40 to shine his bike and his parts started getting loose
Fernando Ruvalcaba yeah that’s a problem
My mate once used wd40 on his disks because his brakes squeaked lol 🙈
@Skott LeFever no it fucked them up, oil soaking intoo brake pads is a bad thing, try it and see
WD40 is water displacement 40 not a lubricant
True but wd40 does everything right? Lol
NoahClark32 It’s like liquid duct tape

Can you use it for airleaks on a 2stroke aerox
For the shining your bike brake cleaner also works good
What ever you do don’t use a wrench🤣🤣
Don’t forget to oil your brakes when they squeak. It annoys all of us so wd40 will fix that right up. Hope y’all like this tip. Ride safe!
Yeah makes them nice and glide smooth haha
Hugh Mathews yeah it works really great
I’ll let you know how it works
@@NoahClarkFitness haha dont actually so it
Why does it even matter if your bike is shiny or not
Look good, go fast right?
Because most of us take care of not only our vehicles and ourselves but are dirt bikes as well as much money as you spend on these things there's nothing like having a couple of beers when you're done riding and putting on some music and cleaning your bike and when you're done standing back and looking at it
Rob W or you could just have a couple beers listen to music and go ride again the next day
@@aaronbright5028 yes if I know I'm going to be riding the next day or the next couple of days I won't wash it
and why dont take one blue sharrpie?
But my breaks are squeaking so I may have to use wd40 on em
Wd40 is not good for plastik remember
this is a really helpfull video but here is a tip for more videos try to be more dramatic with your voice
don’t use wd-40 on plastics they will fade and begin to look bad
Hmm okay, I didn’t know that. Thanks!
Car wax works better then wd40
5 Wanker hacks could not stop laughing the hole time wd 40 and a sharpie lol haha lmao
😂😂😂
NoahClark32 what the hell was u thinking man
Nr 1 or just put it in gear?😉
Nr1?
NoahClark32 nr1 first hack
Так себе
How about instead of a sharpie use nail polish
Prett good idea as well
NoahClark32 I thought of it when you said color match nail polish maybe easier to color match as well
Like if you sprayed wd40 on your seat🤣
Loved that tip!

🤙🏽🤘🏽
Saw a wrench in the rear sprocket to tighten his chain and I cringed!!
I won’t be taking any of his advice
Liberally coat pads and rotors with WD40 for trouble free braking.
Ur chain is rlly loose
Never thought of wd 40 for a cleaner🤷🏼♂️
Check out my channel I post dirtbike stuff and just started
Yawn
