guy I bought my motorbike off advised spraying everything on the bike with wd40 to protect it. I asked and he confirmed he meant every single part of the bike. Are there really no parts that shouldn't be sprayed - maybe brakes, electrics or tyres - or that it's pointless to spray like maybe plastics!
The bike has to be kept outside under a bike cover.

I dont think wd40 on handgrips, footpegs, brakes and tyres would be terribly smart.

after every ride on my dirt bike I spray it all down with wd40 obviously avoiding the breaks and seat,I then hit the brakes with brake cleaner just to make sure none got on there-have had a few hairy moments with no brakes due to wd40

Plus it makes rubbers and plastics look new and shiny again.
Have quite often used Silicon spray on stuff that gets dirty (Speedway car!) to make it easy for grease, dirt etc to wash off and in some cases it doesn't get stuck on in the first place.
