Same happened on a previous motorbike I could see paint flaking off the grab handle as I used the washer, quickly stopped lol.

Also be very careful around the wheel bearings, i5 is very easy to force water past the seal and wash the grease out!

Many years ago when I went to small claims court the clerk advised me to complete the court papers when you sent the final notice threatening court action in 14 days and post them off on the appointed date.
