I used a leaf blower until I found small scratches all over my bike. luckily I buffed them out and then bought a 4hp air force blower which was THE BEST cleaning product I've ever bought. look on ebay. I found one for well below retail brand new, but now that I've used it, I would gladly pay retail.

I use a commercial grade Redmax 5.5HP backback blower. Its works extremely well.
But..... It moves so much air so fast that I now have water stains under my glass speedo gauge cover. Probably as I seem to really blast at the console as it hides water that likes to trickle out during the waxing and messes me up!

I have used the leaf blower, air hose and finally the air force master blaster:

The air force blaster is the best of all of them because the hose lets you get closer to the nooks and crannys in the bike. It is a bit spendy but I use it on my bikes and my cars. I was originally not sure if it was a good value for the $$$, but after using it I would buy it all over again.

I bought the Metro Vac Air Force Blaster Sidekick last year. It is a small, hand-held version of the blaster ($70). It does a pretty good job of drying things up and is small enough that it is not a pain to dig out and use. I found myself using it for other chores around the house too.
