Nice. Thanks for the breakdown. For anyone interested bounce dryer sheets take the bugs off in seconds.
Or any type dryer sheet will work

This is an old post. I thought about asking him what time it was....But decided I didn't need to know how to build a watch.

OK, just to clarify my previous post. What I was trying to say was do not use the lemon pledge on the soft clear plastics such as used on boat covers and enclosures. I haven't the foggiest idea if it would hurt the bike windshields or finish. But it will definatly turn the soft flexible stuff yellow. However just plain Pledge (no lemon) cleans these just fine. So there! Some day you may need to know this.........or not!

Not saying this will happen to your bike windshield but believe me it ruins the other stuff. However regular pledge works fine.
Now.........this was only a For what it's worth to ya so keep your stinking negative comments to yourself......and have a good day......
Possibly you are referring to plexiglass. Not used by Harley but there may still be some plexiglass out there.
