I do a quick cleaning after each ride, only do the detailed one when I'm going some place important.

One of my Sunday night rituals is to clean the bike. Goes great with a biker movie and a coupla beers. I find that cleaning chrome is a great stress-management tool (second only to the actual riding.)

I've got the same great jack and agree, i have my ipod playing, a diet coke or a Coors, depends, and just wiping it down, looking it over, a peaceful evening.



Hope you don't mind, not a soft tali but it does have some chrome.

Beautiful bike, there, 68. Regardless of what it is, tell us about it!

That second shot makes your bike look like a mile long. Very nice!

Don't mean to take this off topic, but I'm sure there's some experts on chrome cleaning. I use Windex to wipe down the chrome bits. Sacrilegious??
