DkD Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hi all, Appreciate that there are some very expensive Bike dryers out there and call me tight but wouldn't a half decent powered (2,000w) hair dryer be just as good at getting rid of water in the hard to reach areas? Of course I;m talking about the bike not my personal bits. Any other ideas or suggestions welcomed - my concern is with hidden water causing some potential rust issues. (Looking to apply ACF-50 on but read the bike has to be very clean and dry first!) ...or do I just wash and dry as best I can and stop worrying about it?
