I picked up Suzuki's version of S100. It comes in a bigger bottle and is only 8-9 bucks. I get about 3 washes out of a bottle. I've been rained on about once a week this summer. Towel and air dry, Hit the high spots with some windex and go ride in the rain again!

Luckily she looks good Durty! This is the day after a 20 mile ride in the rain...

I use one of those Steam Cleaners, they are quick. No need to drag a powerwasher or the hose out. The steam cuts some of the road grime that the cold water of the powerwasher does not. Steam a spot and wipe. No mess.

+1 on S100 detail and wax and also the engine cleaner. Engine cleaner turns the black back to black and does not burn off.

I don't use water on mine anymore all of the clamps seem to get rusty and the bolts and nut on the exhaust. I have heard a lot about lemon pledge working real well.

Mr. Clean carwash. in between I use some the quick detail sprays and microfiber towels. Becareful with Chamios they tend to hold grime and leave the nasty surface scratches

Same way I clean my truck...I wash it, and dry it...

I was told by an old timer back in the 60's, "It ain't rocket science son, it's a Harley."

I thought this was our bikes we were talking about, not our OL's furniture??
