Good topic Billy Boy! I have trouble keeping our bikes clean for 2 reasons. the first is the boys ride nearly every day and secondly the water out here in the outback is bore water and has a very high mineral content, which leaves a yellow stain on your frame and motor. Has anyone got any secret cleaning tips they would like to share.

Thanks for the info on this stuff guys. I hate scrubbing the stubborn sand coated chain wax off everything. I hope it works and hopefully I can find it here locally.
