So today at work the use motorcycle dealer next store came in and asked me if I wanted to set up some kind of deal wear they would pay me to wash there bikes once a week, I just have some questions about bikes.



1. What would be a good price for just a wash (10 bikes) they dont want any wax or anything just a wash.They said the bikes mostly just get dusty because they sit out side.



2. What is different from detailing a bike vs. a car ?



3. Can I soak them with water or will that hurt the motors ?



4. They have a mix of sports bikes and cruisers is there things I should do on plastic vs. Metal ? What about chrome parts ?



Thanks for any help guys
 
Agree, never ever dress anything on a bike....



If they are just wanting just a simple wash, they're probably not going to want to pay much for it, so I wouldn't offer to get to intimate with the bike.



I'd get a leaf blower for sure to dry them with though, lots of little parts...



Not sure what you're thinking of doing, but I'd just give it a good soapy spray down, rinse, blow dry and maybe a QD wipe down for a little added shine. Just wipe any chrome down so there's no streaks.

Not if he's doin 10 bikes a week or more at that price and it'll probably take half hour at the most. Let's do the math $10 per bike. 10 bikes per week that's $5200 extra a year. Plus if your like me you might like to take the half hour break inbetween a paint correction and just wash a bike for a lil bit.
 
Guys, I'm thinking based on his post this is just a wash only job (no polishing, no correction, no waxing) for 10 bikes and they're only dusty not really dirty?



Do you think the dealer is going to want to spend $10 per bike?
