I just tried Top Coat F11. Brought out a deeper shine. Then got caught in the rain and the usual road grime didn't stick as much to the chrome or the paint.

I have been using wizards line of pasts waxes and spray waxes. I have cases of every wax and polish out there, but I never used anything this good before.
FWIW, I've found, over many years, the more one leaves the bike stock, the longer it goes without any problems. Finally decided that highly paid engineers at motorcycle companies may know a little about what they are doing, except for seats and wind protection. Then they are more worthless than a bag of barber hair. tp
I only modify the oem function of the part(s) with better built parts....like wipers on a car ...the moco will use the cheapest **** they can get their hands on without breaking the bank AND works .
Um, optimum fuel to air mixtures rule. More air? Not without more fuel. As for the oil.... Are you sure you installed the breather tubes onto the A/C correctly? Lots of threads about oil levels and oil spewing out the vent tubes. Although I don't have your A/C, I do have a Kury free-flowing one. I run a half pint low and have no issues..... as long as I don't twist the wick a ton. Really. That is what they do. The OEM football just catches the oil better than most free flowing ones.
Yes, what you posted I totally agree.
The install is simple as anything with my backing plate. I didn't install breather tubes, (no where to do it)? I do all the crap including running the oil critically low, filling to full, no difference. Bottom line is my stock friends and all others who I ride with giggle behind my back on why I'd change out the cleaner for zero performance gains. When I do a gas stop I grab a paper towel and give the case a quick wipe before the next stop so hopefully it doesn't look so bad.
This started immediately, no change since installing a canned map using a Powervision
Good day getting it done at American Cycles in Poulsbo, WA. New Ohlins rear shocks -1", Khrome Works 2+2 Stretch Bars, painted inner fairing, Dual 4A+ aux circuit.
I am a fan of the Mother's wax line. And a few of their other products like aluminum and mag polish. The showtime is great to spot clean and the clay bar is a must if you use pure wax.

I agree 110Percent. From the days when sportsters ruled with straight pipes and drag bars, I've kept all my bikes as close to stock as possible. In 40+ years I got stuck on the road twice, once with a dead battery and the most recent inner cam bearing failure at 70K on my ultra.
Brand new ultra , collected it from ALIGATOR ALLEY HD in Fort Lauderdale
Loaded the bike and headed for ANCHORAGE ALASKA Lots of rain ,thunder storms and lightening so pulled up for the night in a comfort inn after 350 miles
Early start tomorrow . TRY AND MAKE NASHVILLE
