Got together with some buddies for an awesome ride in Pickett State Forrest in TN. We had a blast as you can see in the pics! Lol

i see how it is my thread isnt good enough for you to comment on had to start your own....
I finally got around to washing mine last night. the 6plugs in the right rear held okay. the left rear has a big spot missing probably 4 out of the 6ply in the side wall. im amazed we made it out without both rears being flat. Good thing i got some new ones on the way.

Yep it needed a tweak and didn't feel like a legit Honda post Lol. I sprayed mine off Sunday. It still looks like I haven't even washed it but I did knock most of the sand/mud off. The only thing I despise about Pickett is the cleanup. That mud sand is like glue!
I'm about due to throw my other tires on as well. My traction wasn't near as good this weekend and it showed by getting stuck a couple of times. I would've had less trouble with better tread on the tires.

mine cleaned up fairly good. that weird green/blue mud is stuck on my tire side wall though.you need to break down and get a pressure washer and a foam cannon. hose the big stuff off, hit it with a laundry detergent and degreaser mix in the cannon and then garden hose the inside. it took about the same time to wash my truck as it did the rzr.

Your other tires are taller arent they?

Heck I've got a pressure washer and it still takes me forever. It feels like I spray stuff from one side and then go to the other and spray it back. I just think mine has more crevices for mud to hide. I usually spend at least 2hrs pressure washing and then I hand wash. I may go a little overboard I guess but I hate for mud to sit on it since I don't ride it very often.

I have found pressure washing to break up the chunks and getting the mud wet again, then letting it soak for a min before using volume straight out of ¾" garden hose works best to get the majority of it off. The high pressure just seems to spread that last little bit of grit everywhere, instead of pulling it off. Can usually wash mine in just over an hour and a half, no matter how much mud is on it.

Sounds like I definitely need to change my process. I swear every time I get it real muddy I wonder if the fun was worth it Lol.

@BeerMonkey I just ordered a foam cannon on Amazon. Hopefully that will help ease my cleaning duties :)
