No chamois, > no sponge, no Sham-Wow, no paper towels, no old bath towels, nuttin' like > that. The only cleaning the cop bike ever gets is a douche with the power washer and then a wipe down with regular old terrycloth towels. No soap or anything. I wax it with whatever liquid wax I happen to find hanging out in the garage. On occasion it needs a little polishing. For that I use rubbing compound.

The tour pak got painted Wednesday, put on the bike Thursday, and had a beer cup sitting on it Friday night. Got no idea of the guy's name who did it, but I never said a word(*was*kinda tough not to). It's only paint and in a couple of years I'm gonna want a different color anyway. -- Old Crow '82 FLTC(P) 92" '87 FLTC '61 F-100 302/C-6 BS#133, SENS, TOMKAT, SLOB#13, MAMBM
