How are you drying your bike after cleaning?
I'm looking for a better way to skin a cat. Air drying takes too long and leaves spot. I've heard some folks use leaf-blowers and some just use towels.
How about the HD dryer? Is it worth the high price?

My shop vac doubles as a leaf blower, (craftsman) I picked up a reducer nozzle and it works like a champ! gets all the water out of those tiny little crevices also. After that a quick wipe down with some detail spray and a short ride on the freeway, (or a long ride, whichever, ; ) and done.

I have a friend that uses the HD blower and it's awesome. I think the warmed air is an awesome feature. I use a regular leaf blower and it works fine, not as fast as the Harley dryer but it works fine and doesn't cause any problems. Just not as efficient as the harley dryer!

Very soft towels. I've used my leaf blower in the past but I hate the noise.
