Gee, looks like all the posters on this thread are riding store-bought motorsickles. You all have clear coat finishes so here's the smallest violin in the word playing "my heart bleeds for you." 
Here's my 87 with 97,000 after a wash and dry-down (before polishing). One word - 3M Imperial Hand Glaze, Part# 05990

Vivid Black is so fast....Dust can't catch it...Bugs don't stick at that speed, they just richochet off....Are you sure you have the original HD Vivid Black? Could be a copy of one!!!
Ride Safe then wash,wax and clean to perfection.

I found that Easy Off works the best on my paint. The bugs desolve away faster than with peroxide. It can be found in the kitchen cleaning isle at your local supermarket.
Scotch Brite pads are the best for getting bugs, dirt, roadgrime, and melted rubber off my pipes. No elbow grease required. These can also be found in the local supermarket. Same isle as the Easy Off.
