Washing it - how?

Whats the best way to wash it?

Go out in the rain

bucket full of warm water and car shampoo is what I use and then scrub it off with a really soft brush from a pressure wash set dry it off and then get the polish out...this happens once every 5 months

So its okj o use a hose on the bike then?

Best way; don't.

Hose is OK, but be very careful with it. Don't apply high pressure anywhere, jsut use it to rinse over bodywork.

Rain. Emmm thats about it..
Or get it so dirty you're dad gives in and cleans it, because hes a clean freak.

Hose all over to get nice and wet, spray on dirt bike cleaner (get it from your local motocross shop) work it in a bit with a soft bust, one from a dustpan is perfect, especially if you can get one with a fairly narrow body, don't let the cleaner dry on though, do the bike bit by bit if necessary, then hose off using the brush again to make sure everything comes off. Leave to dry, polish if you want to, but use a lubricant spray like WD40 and a rag over the metal bits like footpegs, brake levers, adjusters etc to keep them nice and fresh.

Isnt WD40 on pegs and levers a bit iffy? Making them slippy?
