So are your busas.......

It puts the fairings back on or else it gets the hose again.

great stuff...

WD-40 on a rag will clean that chain wax off.

Oh - and personally - I would stop using the Suzuki stuff. Like you said, STICKY and flings everywhere. I've used Maxima Chain wax...then switched to Silkolene (it goes on clear and stays clear). And recently I switched to DuPont Teflon Multi-Use Spray. I'm really liking the DuPont stuff (no fling).

Thanks Omslaw, I will give that a shot.

By the way Blanca, how do you know how clean Skeeter's peter is? Something you aren't telling us? ???

 

[brandon.k]

Mine WOULD be pretty clean but, I live in po-dunk Texas where every little hillbilly kid with a pickup (2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive, it doesn't matter) think they have to run through every little mud hole they can find on the side of the road.

I hope you don't mind if she's a GenI.
Yes, my Busa's that clean. She's 2 years and 6 months old.

4 month old wheels

I've been using Dupont Chain wax also. No fling whatsoever. Check out the pics.

 

[NINJA KILLER]

Looks Good!

 

[Zoinks!]

Do you people ever ride? Sleeper, I think you just put the bike on the rear stand and left her runnin for a few weeks. Your tires aren't even dirty... I mean don't get me wrong, I like a clean ride as much as the next person, but dang.

sleeper_red,

yours is my favorite Gen 1, good job with it.

And no, mine isnt exactly spotless, I ride it more than clean it.

Speaking of that sticky arse suzuki chain wax, what will take it off the rim short of taking the paint off? I took the chain guard off and now its on the undertail I keep the body clean though. Two coats of mothers caranuba wax. Pressure washer gets the frame,engine,well enough. God help me when i get white rims.

You removed the chainguard ??? permanently or for cleaning ??? Thought that was a necessity some kind of safety thing in case there is a chain break to guide it an spit it out the back

I make it a point to polish her after each ride. That's all there is to it. If I get home late for something and I don't have time to polish her, I do it before the next ride. The chain in that pic has almost 500 miles since the last time I cleaned it. That's the magic of Dupont chain wax. I'm so glad I switched to it after I got the wheels.

Pledge furniture polish is what I use on the whole bike just in case you haven't seen my post about it. That's my secret. I still have cans of Plexus and Honda Polish but after trying Pledge, I never bothered with them again.

Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.

Thanks Pashnit. I thought Luci needed a bath, but after seeing the pic of yours, she can wait.

Sleeper, you bring a tear to my eye, 64k and still looks new. I am as proud as a new daddy

By the way, where did you get those wheels, those are super nice. Thanks for posting. Glad to know there are other OCD bike cleaners besides myself.

 

[TWT racer]

Yep. Always that clean.

Hahahaha that's too awesome wow !!!
...guess my Busa was clean even after riding in the rain in Mexico

 

[Busa Phil]

I give it up to you guys that keep your bikes that clean; thats some dedication. Personally i don't have the means or time to give my busa the love she deserves. I ride her whenever i can though. She sleeps on the streets of NYC and spends the winters indoors at my parents house upstate. I actually just cleaned my chain for the first time 2 weeks ago after adding a few mods (cans, hid, windscreen). She probably gets a bath every two weeks. Little house on the prairie style.

2007 busa
6000 miles

 

[Ranger]

Someone told me you could wipe it down with asphalt...it didn't work.

 

[Kento-Moto]

Wd-40 works good for most stuff, when the chain gets too goopy a little Kerosene and a paint brush are your firends.

 

[riccoh]

part of the ritual... here is the 10 getting her cleaning, and because i dont really use it... the plastics are in their bedroom taking a nap... 200 miles..cleaning after her last ride of 4 miles.

and sad to say but the 07 looks better and gets more loving..

Thanks Omslaw, I will give that a shot.
