in my town they don't use salt on the roads, they use grit gravel, and since the roads were a little wet, the grit ALL stuck to the side of the engine like plaster, unfourtunately the hose isn't taken out yet, so i have to wash it down with a bucket of water.
also, since my exhaust header sticks out farther then the rear fender, the header is all rusty at the end now.
