Purple Slice... spray on let sit 30 sec., wipe off.
Also works great for the between wash wipe downs.

Water seems to be the cheapest and leaves the money for the chrome add-ons. Soak a towel or cloth, leave on five or ten minutes and wipe off. Keep it simple.

I use Mother's Bug Wipes. Two wipes will clean up my bike and does a pretty good job of sprucing up the chrome as well. I paid about $5 locally and it has lasted over a year so far.

I use the Harley bug remover. It's the best store bought stuff that I've found. On the windshield of the RG I lay a wet towel on for about 5 min. That works best, but you can't lay a towel on many of the small forward facing parts of the bike. That's where I use the spray.

only secret is soaking them for couple mins....bout anything will do after their soft.
so any spray solution that stays on the finish should be decent..
