Put the Red Bagger into the storage unit for the winter.

Finally got around to putting the battery tender lead on the battery. Put 4 oz of Seafoam in the tank and filled it up. Hope to be able to ride at least once every two weeks during the winter.

The other day stopped by a Harley shop and was going to buy their motorcycle soap but the sales rep recommended SP100 and said just spray the bike with this, hose off and you're done. So I will try that out whenever I get a chance to wash the bike.

I also bought a crampwrist wide throttle assist, don't know if I like it or not. I need to get a feel for where I want it. Are you suppose to have it off to the side or under your wrist the whole time?

SP100 is the bomb for engines. I don't spray it off afterward though.

S100 makes more than one product... I think you are talking about the Engine Brightener, which makes all the black parts of the engine nice and black. It sounds like Dinggus is talking about the Total Cycle Cleaner, which is a spray-on/hose-off cycle wash for the entire bike that does a pretty good job at getting to all the nooks and crannies.

The only issue I have with the Total Cycle Cleaner is you really really need to rinse and rinse and rinse and rinse. It's still a lot quicker than the sponge/wash mitt and bucket method though. I usually use a boar's hair brush to agitate anything that's extra dirty, but overall it gets most surfaces nice and clean.

Yeah S100 - he had me mixed up a bit...


As far as spray off, scrubbing etc., that's why I use a car wash.

I'm not at home right now, or I would know.

PM me this property you're selling.

Now that I'm home again, uncovered it, pulled it off the battery tender, pulled it out and did a fat burnout!
