Same here man, I would use this method when I get home at like 2am and don't want to start the motor that late. The next day I always still hook the ears up to make sure I can get all that salt out.

I actually flush my Yammie with the flush port and the muffs. Never had an issue with the pressure using the muffs according to the pressure gauge on the dash. Town water pressure here can hit 90-100psi though.

I add a little bit of dawn dish soap then the hose.
