Wouldn't class this as a clean.. just a hoze down, and sponge off the salt on the forks and the back end.. everything else made do with some cold water being sprayed on it...
looks like it will be sunday before it gets cleaned... sorting out new front tyre on friday evening, then off out to swansea for a birthday party.. not expecting to get home until 3am earliest, so I dont think I will be geting up on saturday! also got to prepare it for an MOT and a service.. so will likely strip the thing down to the frame and engine, clean and re-assemble.. hopefully without any nuts or bolts left over at the end!
