Advice on mud not sticking to bike?

[nickt916]

It seemed that muddy-sand liked my bike the most at riverfront for the past couple times i been there. I see other bikes and they seem to be fairly clean compared to how sticky mud was. Any of you guys use any stuff to spray the bike before you hit the muddy tracks to avoid so much dirt build up? on the wheels, on inside fenders, skid plate, etc. I had to wash my bike atleast 5-6 times in a period of couple hours, because it was getting so heavy from dirt building up.

thanks!

Nick, If you dont have a skid plate get one and also line underneath your fenders with duct tape. When your done riding pull it off.

pam works good or anything you use on your pots and pans

"PAM"

WD40 on front of motor, under fenders, anywhere might might get except your brake rotors

i give WD40 and PAM a try... but you spray it once you are at the track or the night before or right after a wash?

Sucttape is a good idea too, but i would have to pull it off 5-6 times a day and putting new tape on depending on the mud

[andracing959]

put pam or wd40 on right before you ride

[nickt916]

Silicone based spray
WD40
Pam
Baby oil 50/50 water

Place foam between your skid plate and engine if you have one. Then clean it good after a mud race as it will collect dirt in the foam, especially over time.
