I wash mine once or twice every two weeks, but only but about 25-35 minutes into it. Don't even always clean the back wheel. I use a leave blower to dry it. Then let it sit outside in the shade for a bit. The next day or two I touch it up with Harley spray wax with micro fiber cloth. Black is such a pain in the arss, but sure looks nice clean.

Hang on a second while I put on my flame retardant suit.......................................
I spray everything coated with bugs with hydrogen peroxide mixed 50/50 with RO water. Wait a few minutes, then ride 1/2 mile to the CAR WASH.
I stay away from any bearings, and switches with the spray.
Last step is the treated water water rinse.
Been doing this on every bike I've owned for the past (gasp) 45 years. Never, ever had any problems caused by doing this.
From start to finish, including drying is 1/2 hour.

Never had a problem and it works a treat to get that hard road grime off, especially under the motor and tranny and also gets the wheel and tires super clean.
