Say i'm using simple green and a pressure washer to clean my quad, what areas should be careful with or pay more attention to? Are there any places i shouldnt spray simple green on?

take off the rear fender assembly (if you have a 400ex) and put your airbox lid on (if it's off) and get all in there. that area for me always get gunked up.

standing it up on it's rear wheels for a second or two to see how clean it is under there is a good idea.

so its ok to spray around that area as long as the lid is on?

and i heard simple green can mess up your plastics and wheels' is this true?

Actually simple green has been known to remove writing from some stickers.
