Washing or hosing down your three wheeler, ATV or tires and taking pics while it/they are wet, doesn't make them look shiny and new(er). It makes it/them look like you hosed them down and took a pic while they were wet to make them look shiny and new(er). Jus sayin.
ETA: This is not really directed at anyone here ;)

Atleast some people hose them down. Most just post them up all covered in mud. Frig, when I sell a buke I spend two hours detailing it. Some people are just too dumb to realize a clean machine sells quick

I always wonder how many oil leaks/drips/spots that puddle of water is concealing.

Oh, I have no problem with washing something to clean it up, it's the purposely taking pics while it's wet so it looks shiny that's a joke.

I would have to say i prefer wet over unwashed. I cant stand when people just throw up an unwashed bike and high asking price. Wet bikes are still annoying though

Seems like everyone does it. But X2 on having a wet over muddy machine.
Can't beat a bike that has been properly detailed though. That reminds me, my x is dirty.
