Hello everyone.
Today, as the title says, I'm making rags.
When you do your own motorcycle maintenance, you need plenty of rags. How do you get yours?
I cut up old bath towels and use them.
I use rags for all sorts of jobs: wiping dirt off grimy parts, cleaning the screen and cowls with VuPlex, and using abrasives such as metal polish (PiKAL, a Japanese brand) to remove rust.
So they don't need to be very big; instead, I make plenty of them so I can keep separate ones for each job.
After all, you don't want to wipe your screen with a rag that's already dirty from wiping parts.
I don't use a fixed size, but I find a little larger than the palm of my hand is about right.
