I have the shop-vac that has the leaf blower built in. The top part with the motor comes off and is a 250mph leaf blower. Works great.

.....waiting for the guy with the three hundred dollar dust-free blower to start talking about how a leaf blower puts pits in you paint with the particulate matter it pushes without proper filtration...

I use an Echo leaf blower but it leaks gas if I hold it at the wrong angle..................the gas makes the bike shiny

Talking

Don't let your dealer find out you're using a leaf blower. It might void your warranty.

I use an air shammy (Google will give you their site) that I received as a gift from my brother in law, he is ocd ****! It is a good bike dryer for a $100, blows warm filtered air, but up until then I used a leaf blower which in my opinion is awesome except the particulate matter it pushes (HAHAHAHA) just kidding.

I use the Mr. Clean car wash wand. No water spots ever and just let it air dry.

I use the Mr. Clean system as well. However, I do have the Cycledry from J&P Cycles. It is very compact and works great. With both, it is clean in a snap.
