500 bucks to wax a bike? I'm in the wrong buisness. What does the 5 year warranty cover? Sounds like a deal...........for the dealer.

That would insult the hell outta me. I think I would find another salesman, or even another Dealer. Ask this guy if he used to be a car salesman???

I'm naive. Never heard of Simonizing a bike. I just wax mine with good products a couple of times a year.

No such thing as at 5 year guarantee on a wax job. I've been in the Car Wash industry for 25 years, and I tell you it doesn't exist. Next thing will be the warranty on the canooder valve!

Best grease for the muffler bearings is this one.

I'll "Simonize" it for 350. That's the dealers last chance to get some cash out of you before you get out the door. Did he offer undercoating?

i think he is trying to sell you a paint protectant, not a simonize wax. for what it's worth because everybody will chime in anyway, i got hold of a bottle of protectant and put it on my 09 ultra, no need to wax all season, just damp wipe and dry with a microfiber towel and it looks like new.
