Here the stuff is brutal on everything specially a black motorcycle. What's the best way of getting this crap off you've found

 

Water hose with a good spray nozzle.

With all the nooks and cranny's, it's next to impossible to wipe it all off.

 

I keep mine shined up with Lucas Slick Mist. Pollen just dusts off with a soft rag or air hose. Use it on the windshield too. Makes it easier to clean the bugs off. Lots of similar products available.

I thought this was going to be about allergies. Mine haven't been bad this year.

 

??????????

Folks here with allergies have been wailing.

Last week I left my bike outside in the driveway and when I went out there was a layer of yellow green pollen thick enough to turn my black bike into that color on all horizontal surfaces.

I'm surprised that there is such a difference so close by.

 

I leave mine in the garage with the door open or closed and in 10mins you can write your name on the fairing,worst year her in quite a while.

 

Unless there's oil or road dirt involved, a light spray of water, or even a good gust of wind like what you get when you take the bike out for a quick run down the interstate, will remove most of the pollen. With my allergies, a little pollen in my bike is the least of my worries. (Having a white bike helps prevent the pollen from showing up too much too.)

 

Yeah right???? Same here. I got a good layer of blitz wax on it and dust it lightly with a kozak cloth. My last bike was morocco gold and sure didn't show as much.

 

Put one of those DIY Beehive kits in the trunk.

 

A compressor and a blow gun will have your bike looking good in seconds.
