Here's another thumbs up for Turtle Wax Ice. I use the paste variety and it's shine is unbelievable. It is a little work to remove but the fact that it's clear means you don't have to dig in every little crack( and I got a big enough crack to dig in now).he he
My bike is black. I live in Arizona where it is dry and dusty, so my only normal concern is dust and bugs on the fairing. I spray some pledge on a microfiber towel and go over the shiny hard parts to get the dust off and use a little more elbow grease for the bugs. I only have to wash it once a year, sometimes more if I have been riding someplace and it's rained and there is a lot of road spray or mud on it. It gets dusty just parked at work because of the landscapers and their leaf blowers.
