lube ur chain with WD-40 instead of chain lube as sand sticks to it tape ur airbox and any holes, use compressed air to clean out ur engine and shit afterwards, then wash it normally

i tend to just tighten my chain, clean my filter and just load it up with oil and grease, not taping up my airbox or anything. bel-ray chain lube doesnt seem to pick up the sand too much

clean, well oiled air filter is the most important. i would tape up grab holes if you have em.
not sure about other guys, but next time im gonna run my bike a bit richer, it didnt seem to like being pinned for ages on the jumps, got a bit of a rattle happening after a while :(
