i use palmolive dishwashing detergent. wet ur quad down, then put it on and let it soak in for about 5 to 10 minutes, i always do this and it works a treat, but i spray the quad in wd40 b4 riding which helps a lot.
cheers tim

I use a $100.00 pressure washer from Bunnings (just don't spray it directly towards bearings etc) then a bucket of hot soapy water with a dust pan brush. Spray the chain etc with Shell DWF (De-watering fluid) when you finish. I also do my boots and armor with the pressure washer while It's out.

I recently invested in a petrol pressure washer. (sick of crappy electric)

Best money spent as I now hardly even need degreasers.
