Here's our comprehensive step by step guide on how to clean dirt bike parts at home.

1. Gather your cleaning supplies: You will need a bucket, water, degreaser, protective gloves, a soft bristled brush, and a rag or towel.

2. Remove the dirt bike parts: Depending on the part you are cleaning, you may need to remove it from the bike. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and use proper tools to avoid damaging the part or the bike.

3. Rinse the parts: Use a hose or bucket of water to rinse off any visible dirt and debris from the parts. Avoid using high pressure water, as this can damage delicate components.

4. Apply degreaser: Spray the degreaser onto the parts, we recommend using Simple Green Cleaner as its suitable for most surfaces. Make sure to get into all the crevices and corners. Let the degreaser sit for a few minutes to allow it to penetrate and loosen any dirt and grime.

5. Scrub the parts: Using a soft bristled brush, scrub the parts to loosen and remove any remaining dirt and grime. Be sure to pay extra attention to any nooks and crannies, as dirt and grime can accumulate in these areas.

6. Rinse the parts: Once you have scrubbed the parts, rinse them thoroughly with water to remove the degreaser and any remaining dirt.

7. Dry the parts: Use a rag or towel to dry the parts thoroughly. If the parts are still dirty or greasy, you may need to repeat the cleaning process until they are clean.

8. Lubricate the parts: Once the parts are clean and dry, apply a suitable lubricant to moving parts to help them function smoothly. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the best lubricant to use.

By following these steps, you can effectively clean your dirt bike parts and help them last longer. Regular cleaning and maintenance is an important part of owning a dirt bike, and can help save you money on costly repairs in the long run.
