Default Dishwasher safe....top rack only

Idle banter....talk and tuning....idle banter.....talk and tuning...Ill put it here and see where it lands, as it is sv related.

In theory, could you wash the fairing panels in a dishwasher? Theres no way it would get hotter then the engine on a warm day, so I would expect the heat would be alright. Id imagine you could even throw some degreaser in the 'main wash' cup. Any thoughts?

And yes...I am...officially...the laziest man on earth.

Ain't that a lot of trouble taking them off?

Plus wouldn't it be more likely to damage the dishwasher. You only problem might be the salt in the treatment scratching the panels... but no worse then on the road I expect.

Just get some muck off or something. Spray on, rinse off. Easy.
