I use S100 Detail & Wax. Love the stuff. I use it to clean up the forks and other areas that get bugs all over it after I ride.

The S100 engine brightener works great. HD part # 99849-97

Meguiars 'Detailler Mist & Wipe' works great to bring up the shine between waxes. Mequiars part # MC20108

Meguiars 'NXT Generation Car Wash' does a good job without removing wax. Meguiars part # G12619

Meguiars 'Deep crystal Paint Cleaner' is good to use once a year to remove all the wax and polish to renew the finish. Meguiars part # A3016EU

Meguiars 'NXT Generation Tech Wax' works great as a base coat. Meguiars part # G12718EU

I top off witha good wax. My current preference is Zymol Titanium Estate Glaze, which isnt cheap but at 51% by volume top quality carnauba isnt that dear either. About ÂŁ67 or around $130 US.

S100 works great but it tends to leave a slimey feeling on stuff which I think over time causes these little white spots to occur even when the bike hasn't been riden after a couple weeks. I think it works extremely well around the engine and wheels but I use Pinnacle car wash on the paint and some of the chrome parts like handle bars, struts etc... It really does take away the dirt w/o a whole lot of manual cleaning.

I use it for everything but it gets costly so a couple of years ago I started mixing with water 50/50 mix and it works the same.
