Be sure to clean, wash and polish your bike in a spot that is in the shade.
Fill bucket with warm water and the car wash of your choice.
Before you start washing clean and bugs or tar off your motorcycle. Use a seperate sponge or cloth than the one you use for washing. It is reccomended to use a bug & tar cleaner. Some people use WD40 to remove bugs & tar.
If your ride has matte finish pipes you can use a degreaser to clean them. Becareful not to get the degreaser on the paint finish or chrome items.
Use the toothbrush to reach any areas that are too small to get your hands into.
Spray your rims with the wheel cleaner let sit for a minute or two. Then use your wheel brush to clean the brake dust off.
DO NOT use any type of tire dressing as it will case issues with the tires.
Pre wet your motorcycle before washing. Wash your motorcycle with a microfiber sponge or microfiber wash mitt. Rinse your sponge or mitt often as any dirt or debris on the sponge or mitt can cause scratches/damage to your paint.
Rinse the soap off your motorcyle with clean water.
Use your chamois to dry your motorcycle. This will help eliminate waterspots. A chamois will not scratch or damage your paint.
Polish your motorcycle using a clean soft terry towel. Spray the polish on the towel then gently apply the polish to your motorcycle. Follow manufacturers directions as some polishes are not applicable to all surfaces.
Enjoy your ride.
