I like to use the leaf blower to dry my bike after a wash. it gets all of the water out of everywhere.

I dont use water that much on my bike, but I can see how a leaf blower would work well   I use my air compressor to blow out all the tight spaces, especially around the cluster and motor.  Meguiars detail spray works great on pretty much everything else.  Then any type of armor all is awesome on the black plastics (air scoop type)  Makes it look like new   I havent figured out a good way to clean the wheels yet so if anybody has an easy way...post it up

drill+polishing ball for the wheels works great for me.

Never heard of it, and where do you get it?

I've been using Meguiars detail spray on pretty much everything, even the wheels.  It seems to act like a wax on the wheels.  So in between hard cleanings I can take a microfiber rag and wipe the brake dust off the wheels very easily, with just the dry rag

Has anyone ever put any sort of dressing on the outside of the belt (ArmorAll or something)?  It seems to pick up a lot of grime.

well that meguiars i use it for just cause but when i am about to pimp the ride i use compound 2.0 swirl high gloss and the dry wash for that nice slick finsh. but i dont ever wash my bike with water. one its a pain and two they are still saying we dont have any water in georgia. so basicly elbo gresse for the pimp only.


be easy

this will be the last stuff you ever use.  I put it on ALL of my toys/cars.  The best thing about it, blocks 100% UV rays.  So all those cars/bikes with plastic light lenses and body panels, theyll never change color or yellowish fade if theyre in the sun all the time.  Use it regularly and it also helps to keep dirt/dust from sticking.

Awesome for anodized aluminum, painted surfaces, plastics, interior, everything.
