You can use an oz of this in a gallon of water to wash and wax the bike.
I put about 2 oz in a 16 oz spray bottle filled with water and a microfiber to wash and wax another to wipe it dry. No residue but it keeps the bike clean and waxed after every ride.
This process works good for cleaning bugs, or just a slightly dusty bike.
I'd do a full wash, using a little more than an oz per gallon for a one step wash and wax.
Does a great job and can also be used as the liquid for clay barring, or just detailing.
I use the one without wax. Great stuff. Been using it for years on my stuff and customers cars. It is well known in the detailing community but not so much in the bike community. Not sure why.....
Eagle 1 Nanowax. I use it on my bike,car,truck,guitars,pedal steel,you name it. Very easy to use;spray on, wipe off,no buffing.
For chrome, I use Nanowax, or distilled water.
Engine black I use S-100 engine brightener, but I'm gonna try Pigspit.
Most cleaners do a good job. I was pleased with the '303' products we as HD Forum members received back in the fall, and I'm a customer now (multi surface cleaner, detailer and UV protectorant.)
As for a black motor, anything silicone based with brighten it up (but I've even used WD10-40 too (sparingly,) with success.
(It's pretty hard to screw it up.)

Meguiars makes a good wash. Microfiber dry for no water marks. In between washes? I use 303 speed detailer and Bugslide. Both work well with little effort. Add me to the list that user S100 for the engine brightener.
Thanks for using 303Ž Speed Detailer! If you have any questions about our products, feel free to contact us!
I buy Spraway glass cleaner from Walmart for less than $3 a spray can and I can't believe how well it works. I have used all the motorcycle specific cleaners I know of and this stuff is readily available and I use it on Windshield, paint, chrome and tires. The tires and wheels even came clean with a lot of brake dust etc. on them. I even keep a can in the saddlebags for gas spills or heavy windshield bugs. You really need to try it.
I would caution using a glass cleaner on painted parts, if it has ammonia that will strip your wax. Not sure what this product has in it, but just be cautious.

It's ammonia free and I've been using it for over 4 years on 2 different brand new Harleys so I think I'm safe. Thanks for the caution though.
