anyone else concerned about water running into the fairing from windshield causing problems? I not worried about rain water...washing bike is my question? Thanks in advance
you should see mine. 1600 miles in 5 days riding to/from ark and 3 of those days were rainy. it will have to be washed twice before a final wash and wax. been putting it off since saturday and really do not look forward to it....
I let mine get absolutely filthy these last few weeks. Got caught riding in the rain several times. Last Friday I spent half a day cleaning it and applying REJEX to protect it. It is so clean that I took several pics of it. Rode to work today with a probable afternoon rain. Be back to filthyville pretty soon.
I use detailer to wipe the bugs off almost every time I ride it but I only wash it about once a month or if I get caught in the rain. This yea I have gotten caught a lot though... lol
I'm in the once a month group but it always seems to have bugs on it. When I do get around to washing it the final drying ride puts the bugs right back on there! It's a never ending circle....
Somehow its gone from once a ride to once a year for me over time. Its too bad that Harley chrome isn't all that anymore....it pits and scares within months if not kept cleaned.
I used to have OCD, but have apparently overcome that. Bike(s) gets washed whenever I get the time....rarely detailed unless I am way bored due to crappy weather.
Now my rigid...I couldn't tell you the last time it was washed...
Bugs on the Ultra's windshield do get cleaned off though.
