RE: cleanest bike i have ever seen
Do you wash it in between oil changes as well? or is that it?

RE: cleanest bike i have ever seen
I try to keep mine pretty clean. I've washed and polished/waxed it about 2-3 times since December, which isn't easy in the winter! In the summers I try to keep her clean most all the time... though I don't always go crazy to get into the "hard to reach" places every time. Cleaning the wheels is what I dislike the most. Especially the back one that gets all the caked on chain lube (the little "spray" that always seems to come off no matter how light I lubricate the chain).
The bike always seems dirty though... that's what I get for riding rain, snow, or shine!
