FYI-spray polish
Many on here have indicated they use Honda Spray Polish to clean their bikes. Myself included. Supposedly, it was discontinued. I was about to run out, so I checked on it and wanted to share for those interested that Honda Spray Polish is now called The ORIGINAL Bike Spirits Spray Cleaner and Polish. Same stuff, different name.

It is exactly the same as the Honda polish. The label even looks similar.

Meguiar's quick detailer 
This is what many of us around here use. I used to use Honda polish. I usually take a few minutes before each ride and wipe the bike down with Meguiar's.

I like the honda spray cause you can use it on greasy back wheels and it wipes right off!

WD-40 FOR RIMS
quote:

I've heard from MANY folks on here that WD-40 is the $h*+ for taking grease off dirty rims and such. Spray a little on the rag then hit the rims and lower parts of the frame and such with it and grease comes RIGHT off. I've been doing it for a couple of years without a complaint. I do this and save the Honda spray and such for the body.

wd40 on the rims and swingarm 
Pledge is good for light colors but on dark it shows the streaks and its hard to get them out...

Pledge on black just requires a little more rubbing. I use it on my black snowmobile too! But I do know what you mean about the streaks....the black of the ZX14 mirrors require the extra rubbing in.
