Tree Pee Got Me - CB4ME_imp - 08-02-2015 I made the mistake of leaving my bike under an oak tree overnight. This is a sampling of the hard sticky mess: The tank, seat, fenders, and fairing were covered in clear hard dots. I could feel a sense of panic setting in. Fortunately liberal spraying of WD-40, allowed to sit a few minutes, followed by a long hot water bath saved the day. Beware of sap dropping trees!

RE: Tree Pee Got Me - redbirds_imp - 08-02-2015 Ugh, nasty stuff and hard to remove. Glad the WD-40 did the job, a good tip to remember. RE: Tree Pee Got Me - dailyrider_imp - 08-02-2015 Both my cars and sometimes my bike sit under a large oak that covers over my drive. I use Dawn dishwash to clean all. Works great.
