I've done the leaf blower drying bit, but what about sand or crud getting sucked in and blasted onto the bike? Anyone rigged a filter to the intake, like duct-tape a lawnmower filter element on and tape over to top of the ring to seal it, or something? Yes I know I need a real filtered bike dryer, but humor me , I'm feeling cheap (and dirty) right now...

 

If you're concerned about dust and grit going through the intake of the leaf blower, try putting some old panty hose over the opening.(you've got some laying around somewhere, right?)Cut a piece and maybeuse someduct tape to hold it on? They wouldn't impede the air flow but would act as a simple filter.

 

just buy yourself an airforce blaster best damn thing to use. filtered, heated air. no fuss, no muss.

 

Thanks you'all. Heres my take right now:
Pantyhose or air filter and duct tape, $12. Airforce Blaster (on sale) $90 with shipping. You are right Dyno, but I am just tring to do with whats I gots for now, jew-kno, mang? Will upgrade in the near future, can't swing it for another few washings yet. Gonna try the redneck way first, and if I can justhide it well enough for a while,by the time my wife sees it andstarts shaking her head and rolling her eyes at me like she does, I will be ready for a real one.
