I spray my engine with a mixture of dishwashing liquid and water. Let it sit while I wash the rest of the bike, Then just rinse with water. I use simple green on the underside due to road grime and stuff. Wash the rest of the bike with Meguires carwash soap. JMO
thanks. im not one of those guys that asks how to wash my bike or change my oil or whatever. i was thinking there might be something out there like that motoblack stuff. i'll have to try that out. i guess it has no ill effects on the surounding chrome goodies?
