It's clean now... and stored for the year...
but yeah... that's actually relatively clean... I ride more than I wash, and being as I ride gravel every day to work, and live in BFE... yeah, it gets dirty.

hasn't seen a wash in almost 8000 miles... and will only see one right before I sell it. it gets rained on about 3-4 times a week so that's enough hydration

it'll be interesting to see what the 800GS will look like half the time

My bike is spotless...but when you dont ride it you have plenty of time to clean.

oh I know... but I see no point. I'm not really concerned with how my bike looks... but I keep it mechanically sound...

don't get me wrong... I love a clean bike... but for me... it's not worth it... it rains daily here... I'd have to wash it daily. not gonna happen... I'd wash it weekly at most...

but the 800GS... probably only gonna be washed when back from a muddy off road trip.
