Hey I went riding in the mud on saturday and it is the most fun ever!! Just wondering if there is any special maintenance that needs to be done after riding in the mud?
Cheers

Yeah man I Got it all nice and clean and that! I got told by a mate that cleaning the filter with fuel isnt very good cos the filter can expand. Is that true?

nah man, hed be talking out his bum 
just give your filter a soak in some fuel and then hose it off thats what i always do too easy
as for the mud, all i can suggest it make sure she gets a good clean and make sure all your bolts are greased up
then you can go hard
