[quote=Heavy D;8699567]Yes sir.

 

[QUOTE=Matt0987;8699602]I bet you could even take the seat off before strapping to save any damage to the seat?

 

Well, I remove the seat, and pother things, when giving the bike a cleaning anyway to get to the top of the side covers and other places.

Make sure you do not get something on the battery terminals if your bike has them exposed.

 

Thanks to everyone for their comments!

 

Colonel Brassy works wonders. Removes rust, bugs, rubber marks on exhaust, just don't use it on your paint. Very abrasive but doesn't scrath chrome and works instantly with very little work.

 

remove saddle bags. spray wheel cleaner on what you can see....wash the bike with a good liquid wax by putting it in a miracle grow liquid fertilizer dispenser attached to a water hose rinse the wheels off last. after washing the bike with pass one, roll the bike back until the wheels turn half a rotation, repeat process...spray wheel cleaner...wash bike again...rinse wheels off last. air dry, wipe dry, but do not start your bike up for a few hours....likely to have water in electrical and spooky s&^t will happen.

 

I use Meguiars Chrome Cleaner. Then RIM WAX.

The Rim Wax leaves a nice coat and keeps most dust from settling on them. Also makes it real easy for the chrome cleaner to really work well.

I wax the rims at least 1 time every 6 weeks or so.

 

Agree! I stopped at the mechanic shop today and some kid/mechanic working there sold me some Colonel Brassy and Major Shine from his personal stock. Said that since my bike had so much Chrome, that I would probably like the stuff. Must say, the stuff was amazing! Cleaned hard water stains right off my rims that Lemon Pledge couldn't budge. It was simple... just rubbed on and rubbed off. Made the chrome on my bike look great.
