Default Putting on new pipes

I am doing the stage 1 install today, and know that the pipes need to be wiped down before starting the bike. I just don't know what product I should be using.

Looking for some input for you guys. Thanks.

When I put pipes on my Geezerglide I just wiped them down with good old windex, never had any issues.

Default O2 sensor socket

Anyone know if the 02 sensor socket (harley part) is required to remove the 02 sensors?

It can be done without it quite easily.
