- This is a video using pressure washer, armor all tire foam, and Mcguires hot chrome wheel cleaner. Shows you how to wash your bike to make it showroom clean. I also forgot to add a part of the video for cleaning the inside of your motor, but what you do is you put 6ish top fulls of sea foam motor cleaner in your gas tank, and it should clean your injectors out and make them run better. Don't be scared when you ride with it and it smokes a little after you put that in your tank. It's normal, because it's eating away all the bad ethanol inside your fuel pump and injectors. It will only smoke if your bike is a little old and it has had ethanol gas in it. I now run 93 octane due to my other bike had a carb go bad because of ethanol. I hope yall enjoyed the video please like and subscribe If yall enjoyed this video! Thanks for watching and let me know how I did in the comment section.
Thanks for the tip's man, nice to see a kid taking care of their stuff like that.
the mistake I have been making is not removing the covers and cleaning my engine. Thanks for the tips, well done young man.
Thanks for the video, yours is by far the simplest, but most effective I have seen. Thanks agian.
I've seen a few videos using the tire foam cleaner on their atv. Brilliant idea. I use armor all on my truck tires. I'm gonna give it a try soon on my grizzly. Thanks for the video
Thanks for the tips bro, buying those supplies now.
I clean mine with a hose and pressure washer but I generally don’t clean it to the T like you did cause I end up going right back to full on dirty the next few days later. Nice tips on the cleaning 👍
Bad ass video bro. Your tips made my 03 polaris look brand new. I'll be sticking to this cleaning process from now on.
Nice video man, thanks for taking the time to post it. Your machine looked great after you cleaned it. I would like to share something with you about using a pressure washer though. You should never use one to clean your ATV. A regular garden hose is just fine. The reason is that the high pressure can force water into places you don't want it, like electronics. I know lots of people that do it and they don't have any problems, but there are people who have. It's not worth the risk to me.
Something else you may want to try sometime for fun is Turtle Wax Ice Wax. It's a car wax but can be used on plastics as well but has to be buffed off with a micro fiber cloth. It's a bit more work but the shine is fantastic and it sticks for a long time and makes it easier to wash the dirt off next time.
Take care.
EastCoastATV never had a problem power washing mine

Good video, it’s hard to know what is safe for these plastics. They’re so expensive and sometimes only look good wet. I do power wash. Every machine is different, if you’re fuel injected, under your seat looks like the inside of a computer. I lightly power wash under the seat and blast every thing else. Some of the areas I ride the mud is like concrete and a garden hose is no match.
Nice video, I work in a Honda and artic cat dealership and as part of the service we clean the bikes so we can get at the bungs better etc. When power washing the bike a good thing to do is to tip it's on its back or on its side (with an axle stand holding the rack) and take off the bottom plastics. Although there may not look like much mud under there it will defo surprise you. This also allows you to clean the underside as well. For polishing the plastics we use red diesel and believe it or not it really works well. Nice video tho as the engine part was helpful
Nice job cleaning, Looks nice. I know it's fun riding in the mud but its about the worst thing you can do to a good machine. I used to ride through every mud hoke i seen when i was younger but now i'm older and wiser and go around that stuff because it ruins it.
Walleye Willy whats the point of mudding then?
@@DJStunnaz23Ent he said "I know it's fun *riding* in the mud" NOT "I know it's fun mudding is"
It's an All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) bud
Hey man thanks for the video. I to have a 420 rancher. I now keep both of those bottles handy when I was my machine! Great way to take care of your stuff! I also found that the chrome cleaner works very well at taking the yellow out of the motor giving it that new look!
Yes indeed it does. Have a can am now and it takes scrubbing on the motor after you spray it on, but it gets everything off of it. Really appreciate the feedback
Great job and video !! Thanks for sharing
that's was an awesome video, very informative!
awesome going to give that a try great video !
Good job, thanks for the tips.
Beautiful bike man!
I use tire foam on my Hondas too, but I've never used that spray for the engine. Great idea!
Thanx for sharin'!
any time really appreciate the feedback
+fisherwarren5 so when I wash the engine or the suspensions or the carbeutor with water it will not effect anything ?
+fisherwarren5 are they 28 or 29 inch
GosuLift no
Turned out nice. Great tip using the wheel cleaner on the aluminum parts engine and could use on diff,s.
Turned out pretty good. Don't recommend the tire shine on the seat though unless you want to go flying off lol, I learned that lesson. But other that that it came really clean.
Nice video..helpful and well done... thanks
Nice. I never take the time to clean my Honda foreman , but I can see myself picking up some tire foam in the future by armour all!
i discovered that mcguires trick a few years ago, i sprayed it on my 01 450 motor and after one application it went from shitty brown to shiny new, it works great,
Never thought I'd see a video on how to clean a bike😂😂
I need to try that on my 300 fourtrax .nice vid man this is way better than just washing it
Thanks really appreciate the feedback
Thanks for the vid i used this on my rancher works perfect.
Thank you very much. It means a lot!
Great job
Very good video thanks
Great video
looking good pal
I use a foam cannon on pressure washer followed by sc1 works great but i like the tire foam idea never heard of that
nice bike I have a 2008 Honda 420 with a big gun es and I love my biks
Thanks man the Mcguires That shit works amazingly lmao and my motor was a yellow grimy 2017 foreman
Thanks for the video dude. Good job!!!
Good video
I've looked at a few used quads over the years and most of the time people never bother to take the seat off and clean underneath.
I'm using a few different tire and wheel cleaners to clean mine but I will try the Meguires stuff if I see it at the auto parts store.
nice job, thank you.
nice video...get some Slick off road wash the stuff is amazing and you can spray it on everything..
Awesome Vid Bro I appreciate You #LouisianaBoi
thank you on the feedback
NICE!!
The engine part worked great with the tire shine. The tire foam didnt do anything (except on the tires obviously) I tried this with a yellow Honda Recon and a green Honda Rancher. Not sure if supposed to do this in the shade or something like that?
Purple Power works excellent too...
I really need help getting some of those rims and tires there is not a lot of options with stock rims, thankyou
does it have a gear reduction or any performance parts and how well does it turn those tires
What's the best way to clean mud stains off the black mud guards? I think I need a chemical cleaner as it won't wash off with soap and water and a nylon scrubber.
Fresh man! I’m sure people are bashing the whole pressure washing but it looks good. Which unit is that?
I have an honda rancher 420 just put a 2" lift kit. What are the details on your tires n rims please?
So you let the tire shine sit on the plastic for two hours , before whipping it off?
wow! niceeeeeee!!!
What size tires are those? And are they ok to use on the asphalt?
I use this stuff called SC1 its for plastics because eventually the tire shine kinda eats away at the plastics and will fade the color but you probably wont have to worry about the green but my rancher is red so it would fade it to a pink color
Nice Ima try after get back from mudslide Ima muddy it up a lot the. Try it out
Let me know how that went!
thanks for the video, but I would never power spray the engine area. Manufacturers say not to do it - it forces water into places that it shouldn't go.
Ok I like your 4 wheeler
Holy fuck , thank you !!!!!!!!! That chrome stuff you put on your engine actually works !!!!!!!!! Omgggg thanks !!!!! Keep up the good vids !!!!
jeezy -.- was your motor bad my brute force i have had since 2013 i live on a dirt rode so mine is stained bad i used gunk havy duty gel and it did not help would this work on mine
Adam Allensworth yes it works amazing
Yes McGuires is good shit it’s 7$ a bottle but worth every dime I do mine after every ride
Thanks !
I got a 2015 honda foreman what ties I should get
Yo mud fest is so fun I tested my snorkel out there and played hold for hole with a can am Edit: also I won the dude swamped his bike
So after a few hours do you wipe it off
I can't believe tire foam did all that nice job bud
Thanks man
What kind of quad us that? What engine? An speed
+Matto Dillon 420 rancher Honda 50mph
just picked up the supplies today for my Yamaha Bruin 250 fingers crossed
unfortunately I don't have patience to wait I did everything except waiting got nowheres and it still dirty
What kinda led light?
is the speaker waterproof?
What year is your Foreman?
What tires u have on there
What are those tires? Haven't seen them before
Is that hot wheel chrome cleaning safe for the Engine? And other Bake on mud on Metal stuff safe?
No
Would this method still work if I haven't cleaned my ATV in a couple of months (about 5)?
Mine hadnt been cleaned in 5 plus years, and this process worked great for me. I washed the entire atv with soapy water and rinsed all the mudd off. Next did the motor and gearcases, and exterior last.
I used to put cooking spray all over the plastics. almost ne cleanup required.
I just bought 28x10x14 terminators for my honda rancher yall thank they will rub on a 2010 model
nice
Thanks
How much did your tires cost
My atv has a speaker on it two but it’s not working so I don’t know what to do , should I take off the speaker ?
Just fix it
Is it ok if I clean my four wheeler with a 60,000 psi pressure washer?
You shouldn’t clean ANYTHING with a 60,000 psi “pressure washer”.thats a frickin water jet that they use to cut metal with.
What tires are those
I read somewhere that over time that the tire shine will eventually eat away your gloss protective enamel on your plastics making it look flat, and I have seen it happen, it's okay to do it every once in a while but I wouldn't after every ride
You are wrong
Ive done it since day 1 and ive had this bike 2 years now. Not lost any gloss coat. Over time your bike will fade due to the plastics being in the sun or being scratched on a trail. It is always best to get a heat gun on your plastics about once every year or so just to bring out the plastics original look again
What is your tire size?
Ok ok i can use this video
When do you use that gear shifter on the left side of the ATV left foot rail 🤷♀️???
Thats the gear change since he doesnt have the es (electric shift) version
Bright Shadow: Thanks, but if the ATV is automatic, why & when does one use the gear change 🤷♀️???
Roberta Whitfield nahh my guy honda atvs arent automatic they are usually semi automatic and theres really isnt a correct time to shift I mean there is a automatic honda machine which is the honda rincon but its also eps
How did you clean your exhaust? mine has rust and dirt on it and im just wondering what you use to keep that nice and shiny.
I just repainted mine. wire brush all rust off, use motor heat rated paint, I used 2000 degree paint and primer, prime it then paint it. I used a crome finish and it looks bomb
Alloy wheel cleaner is the easiest way and probably best
Wait so you let the foam sit for an hour and then do you wash it after an hour or no?
Just spray it on and let it dry itself
What year is that honda??
Can you wash the foam off do you have to use a cloth
Really I would not even wipe it. I found out it leaves a glossy look to it if you just let it dry itself
What ties are rhose
Stupid question... But isn't there something u are not supposed to get wet while u clean it
any suggestions on how to clean the box the air filter sits in?
Jay Ski you would have to get a rag and clean it by hand
Thanks...much appreciated. ..
what size tires? looks perfect man. I've got 6s on mine and yours just looks so much better
Fisher!!!!!
year ?
My uncle said to keep my blaster running when I wash is it okay if I don't
Dj Mystery i don't see what i would hurt either way, but im sure if he tells you that, you should do it just in case.
do u have a gear reduction on ur 420 to turn those tires
U not turning em on A Honda if no reduction! Period
Does it leave almost like a slippery surface on that plastic when you do the tire shine?
Tyler Southerland probably
WildCatBoot82 I did it to my four wheeler and I just now left from spring break. I wiped it down with shine yesterday, it has a little bit of greasy like to it but I’m going to see if it will dry or something by the time I get back which is a week.
Do you just wipe off the tires shine or wash it off
Just spray it on and let it dry itself
Is the Audio tube and light water proof? Do you have a cargo box for the back
Drum Pro yes the audio tube is and pretty sure the light bar is as well
kyle prichard resistant
How is your stock exhaust loud ?
It isnt any louder than a normal rancher. Its just the camera that was outside and picked up it the most in the microphone
How does your 420 turn those terminators.. I'm thinking about getting some but think that they might not spin well in mud or water
People think it won't turn them but it had no problem until you got into that sticky mud that doesn't clean off easy and it will struggle a tad bit still pulled through
Get mega mayhems. Great all around tire and a ton lighter than terms. That's what I have on my outty 1000
I believe the Zillas are the lightest on the market from what I was told.
It can’t without gear reduction
Will this mess up the stickers on the camo one
N8 ok thanks man
would this work for a yamaha blaster?
No, it’s model specific! 😂
Of course! Wash it! Why didn’t I think of that?! Here I am smearing mayo all over my Sportsman wondering why the hell the mud won’t come off... thanks for the tutorial!
Lmao... but how did the mayo turn out? 😉
Mud fest in Jackson tn?
Is it ok to clean everything on an Atv with a 2000 psi pressure washer
Yea
HondaRider420 I use a 3000 psi and it don't rip off the stickers
Just dont get close to the stickers when using a pressure washer
Yes just be careful
