    You attacked the bike with the most aggressive lance available. OMG!

      These things are bullet proof... well up to a point. I do try and not hit sensitive bits deliberately. This lance do have a blockage and it looks and sounds much worse than it is however if you put your hand in front of it there is a bit of a sting.

    Switch to a fan jet, nobody should use a 0 degree tip for anything, I don't even know why they sell them. Get a 25 or 40 degree 👍

    no danger in that. that pressure washer doesn't have enough flow and pressure to damage anything.

    a pressure washer can inject water where you don't want it, end of story

      They need to start licensing the purchase of pressure washers.

      well they had to crack down on all the folks who bought one and decided to start washing homes and driveways because of the crap they were washing down the storm sewers

      The big one? ;-)
      I lost my rear "mud from wheel scraper" thing that almost resembles a fender.

    You should not spill the chemicals into the soil. Use purpose built places where chemicals are collected

      Very true, unfortunately those places not very accessible to us down here but I will keep that in mind. I did reach out to the supplier to give me info on the products I use as your comment got me thinking. Thanks!

      Does literally no harm, it gets diluted that much.

      Our local council advised everyone to wash on the grass and not on the concrete

    • @TonyRule

      @@Ridingnz46 Correct. You don't want to be flushing 'chemicals' down the stormwater drains because they discharge to streams, rivers, or the ocean untreated.
