Gonna try a leaf blower this spring. Found an electric one in the GF's basement. Might try and devise a smaller nozzle to increase velocity.

 

Air Force Blaster® Sidekick™ Compact Motorcycle Dryer 1.3 HP. From Amazon I paid $59.

 

Since I already had it, I have used my Shop Vac in the exhaust mode w/ crevice attachment on the hose. Nice warm air, works great!!

 

I use the AirForce Blaster Sidekick. I've been using for about 5 years.

 

Always wash the bikes just outside of the garage. I've got like a lifetime supply of Turtle Wax Car Wash Concentrate that is great for not leaving a lot of nasty water spots after rinsing. I usually have an air hose handy as well as an electric leaf blower for getting the water out of the nooks & crannies. Only gets a complete wash 3 or 4 times a year. Needs one now.
Good enough for me, its not a show bike.

 

Another vote on the blower.

I also blow out smaller spaces with air compressor, and then hit any area with a rag that may still show some water.

 

I use an electric leaf blower. works great.

 

Blaster uses filtered & heated air, so nothing being fired at the bike along with the air, and the heat helps to dry it quickly. Love mine!

 

Stihl leaf blower here as well. I follow up with a microfiber drying towel.

 

I have a pet dryer, but the leaf blower is better.
