I haven't washed my bike with water yet (this is my 1st season)...but I will do that end of season and very carefully before I put her away for the season.

basically shes kept in super clean condition always. I like a clean bike and I enjoy cleaning it and keeping it that way.
I use various spray on cleaners/ degreasers, windex, and waterless wax all from Canadian Tire generally, with an array of micro fiber clothes and polishing wipes. for the headers I use autosol paste, applied with a rag in small amounts and polished with a buffer cloth with lots of elbow grease. I would like to find something better tho-the autosol is ok, the results are not what I would like to see. But Im picky ...
