Well, it will usually stay clean white, though where your leg rubs against the plastic, the mud can stain it, all you need to do is take a buffer to it, and it goes back to the nice bright white.

The white n red is the ticket. Mines already stained along the tank but i dont care cuz i got it to ride not look pretty. Benifit of white plastic is it doesnt show the stress like the blue. since mine would look like crap after the last crash i had. but cant hardly tell. besides the missing grab bar and tail light and bent clutch lever [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Seems like the white stays pretty clean everywhere else. Just wax it and the mud will run right off.

I do all the time. even with the stock rear tires that thing flies up anything you can throw at it. Look at my pics our trails are pretty rugged. between mud, water, rocks n ledges, It just chews it all up. on the ranch we have more of a TT style track.

I've gone through about a foot and a half of muskeg with my Rappy, and muddy hills are no problem as long as you know how to tackle them.
