Ok. I’m a Harley man through and through and don’t make fun or cap on the MOCO too much. I figure they have their problems and I have mine. But this time I just can’t help it.
I went to wash the bike today and was fresh out of the Meguiars stuff that I normally use so I figured , what the heck, I’ll try using that 2 oz bottle of Genuine Harley Davidson Sunwash Concentrate that was a free gift for buying the bike a while back.
The directions on the bottle actually say “Use a HD 3 ½ gallon bucket and a HD Soft Drying Towel”.
The problem is that all I had is a regular bucket and a non-HD soft drying towel. So I went ahead and took a chance with what I had. There was no mention of using HD water for rinsing so I just used regular water.
