I've been using Mother's for quite some time.

Anybody else remove the saddlebags when cleaning your ride?

I remove everything that comes off easily when I do mine

Bags, seat & windshield, treat the bags and seat & clean the shield.

I wash the bike at the local wand car wash and then use the air drier they have. Never used Pledge before so I tried it and it worked great, thanks for the tip.

I've used the Meguire's detail spray with good results, but I'm currently using the Eagle One Wipe and Shine. It's the best that I've used yet!
