What make you think it was just your bike that got sprayed? Weren't you on the bike at the same time?

+1 on the above mixture. Have used this on my dogs and a friends car when she hit a skunk. I works w/o a problem and takes the smell away. Also, Mythbusters did a test on the formula and proved that it worked.

Buckfinitch - I saw on an older post of yours how you installed your tag below the fender. I have the same HD medallion and plan on installing my tag similar to yours. Did you use the bolt under the fender to attach the bracket for the tag? Any issues with the cops stopping you for the tag being too low?
thanks
thanks
Yep we live in Tennessee Back in the Holler.. And the baking soda and peroxide work the best..Maybe just wash the bike down with it I do not think it would hurt the finish at all..

I would ride that sucker up to the dealer and start talking about 2012s. Have the sales guy come out and look at your trade in. Watch his face, then throw him a low-ball number at the same time.
Id have fun with it, then wash it with a sand-blaster or the cleaning stuff they use on houses with dead bodies found in them before they sell it.
That sucks man.

Worked wonders on an Old English Sheepdog that was literally dripping with the spray,
pheeew!
QUOTE=mkguitar;8759293]From howstuffworks.com:
So if curious Fido happens to frighten Pepe Le Pew, all you need to do is mix 1 quart (.95 liters) of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide, a quarter cup (59 milliliters) of baking soda and one teaspoon (5 milliliters) of liquid detergent and lather him up
let sit, then rinse.
The tomato idea is one of 2 odors covering each other, so you end up smelling tomato instead of skunk
Either a ventilated area--- or in a "bubble" with newspaper and charcoal (like you do with a fridge) to absorb the odors.
i bought an expensive rare guitar from a dude who wore helacious cologne- the guitar cleaned up fine but the case---whew! Febreze wouldn't do it, so i have a bunch of charcoal in it sitting out in my shed--- I shake it up everytime i walk by and it a few weeks will vacuum out the charcoal and use my little carpet cleaner on the fuzzy liner if needed
