First Automated Motorcycle Wash Opens


With so many nooks and crannies for road filth to hide in, washing a motorcycle can be a tedious task. So consider us intrigued in Moto Express Wash, reportedly the country’s only fully-automated bike washing system.

According to its builders, this Indianapolis car wash system can wash and dry a motorcycle in five minutes, and the prototype machine even automatically rotates the wheels to ensure all of the bike's spokes are cleaned.

A computerized system controls blocks at the front tire and kickstand to hold anything from a scooter to a custom chopper upright, and a washing arm handles the pre-soak, wash, and spot-free rinse in a fashion not dissimilar to a traditional car wash. The bike is then air dried.

The creators of the system have a patent pending, and hope to build a nationwide business with this new system.
