Do you mean to clean the motor and the anodized surfaces?
car wash soap ( I really like Chemical Guys HoneyDew Snow Foam which works great with a foam gun)
a garden hose foam gun (chemical guys or any)
soft chenille wash mitt
Metrovac air dryer
soft clean microfiber towels
Thank you, is there any type of polish you would suggest? I know I have seen where some mentioned that some wax may change the appearance of the smoked
chrome? Thanks again, it is difficult finding answers to these questions...
I looked at some pictures of your model motorcycle, it looks terrific. Are you able to post a picture of your bike? I think those smoked chrome surfaces (rocker cover, etc) are anodized. I would not use anything other than carwash soap. Polish has abrasives, and wax may have abrasives in it also. don't do it. I have similar surfaces on my bike, kind of translucent gray rocker cover, some on the wheel rims too, dealer used some kind of harsh soap on the bike before delivery and stained these surfaces, that's permanent. Be gentle and less is better. Eaglefan is on this forum, you might want to message him with your question as well
