Does anyone use something similar to this to dry their bike quickly? I usually just use a Mr. Clean auto dry. While there are no spots, the bike takes FORever to dry. There are several models to choose from on the site where I buy a lot of my car care stuff, so if you use one, let me know what it is and where you got it if it works great.

I use my leaf blower. Works very well.

 

Well, I have a leave blower that attaches to my weed eater, but that is a bit difficult to control. I was thinking though instead of telling the wife I am buying it to dry the bike, that it can be used as a high powered broom anywhere and it only weighs 8 lbs. [sm=boink3.gif]

 

We have a few of the Metro blowers and would not be without them. Far superior to the leaf blower method. Heated, filtered, controllable air is the way to go.

 

I use the same blower. However I found that my grass blower works better

 

I use the Metro Blaster and find it works quite well.

 

i use a show calf blower it has low and high on the blower and low and high on the heat . they do cost . it has a long hose that will reach all around the bike with out moving the blower . works great !!! you can look up sullivans show suplies on line to see them. we show cattle that is why i bought it .

 

The problem with leaf blowers is that normally they are not dedicated to just drying. When used to blow leaf and debris and all that stirs up the blower is normally dirty. Since they are not filter and the blower is the exhaust whatever is sucked in is blown out. Now if the leaf blower is gas..all you have is an exhaust pipe.
Dedicated "electric" leaf blowers can be fine as long as dedicated and keep clean around intake. We even use this one when we detail autos. www.airwand.com

 

I have one. They work well and save a lot of time and energy.

I picked up an electric leaf blower from Sears a number of years ago. It is only used for the Harley or the cars. Works great and it was under $20. Blow off the water, microfibre towel the chrome....All done.
