Default Washing question

Do you guys use a hose and spray ur bikes down entirly??
I am wondering if that is safe or not.
Because right now I just use that lazy mans wax.
But I wouldn't mind to spray the rims with water instead of getting down there and
Cleaning each little crevis lemme know thanks!

I do it... I make sure the hose nozzle is on the 'shower' setting. Never a problem.

You can completely soak your bike, just don't stick the hose in the ram air or exhaust and it'll be fine...don't worry, a little water in the exhaust is ok and will dry when you go for a ride...some people use a leaf bower to get the extra water out of the bike too.
