Default Best Wax?
Can you guys suggest the best wax out there? I would prefer one that doesn't leave a white residue on the rubber bits.

That and Turtle Wax Ice. Check out this thread:

I believe that the Eagle One is less expensive.

I use Pledge. Good stuff and it's dirt cheap.

You might want to consider not using wax and use a product called Zaino.

It does not contain wax. It is a polymer sealant. I started using it four or five years ago when I had a solid red car and was trying to find something that got rid of the swirl marks. It worked and I have used it on my cars and motorcycles ever since.

In my experience with this product, it lasts much longer than any wax I have ever used. It is very easy to use also.

The Zaino line includes a polish, a one step product (polish and protect), two different final coat products, detail sprays, etc.

PROTECT ALL. Polishes, waxes, treats, protects. I use it on the whole bike and have been for years!
