Probably a can of worms question but here goes, what products/techy things do you recommend for cleaning my bike. The tank has some light micro scratching which I would like to try and ease out with a glaze or the like. What is the go guys?

If the paint on the bike has not been corrected before then it often has swirls and marks throughout so the FULL process I went through on the tins was:

whereabouts is that Lucifer?  
reminds me of near Everton / Beechworth in the Vic high country

I spray some diluted truck wash on the wheels tyres frame and motor.

Wait 5 minutes then rinse it off

I then use a new microfibre cloth in a bucket of warm water and Meguiars NXT Generation Car wash.

I have also started putting a plastic bag over the right hand control, the air intake and my swingarm bag.

I generally scrub all the shiny bits then rinse off, then do the not so shiny bits and rinse again.

I used the compresser with a blow gun to remove excess water and then give the mirrors and dash glass a scrub with mr sheen on a clean microfibre cloth.

sometimes i get a bit carried away,but usually diluted ct18 in a spot sprayer.let this soak 5-10 mins.then another quick go over. then brush and micro fibre mit.drip dry a few miuets out of the sun and finish with a couple of micro fibre cloths and turtle wax "wax and dry".comes good without a polish.all this on a cold bike.cheers.

Is it me or do others find a buzz cleaning your motorcycle? 

Agree...its very relaxing cleaning the bike....put on some good sounds and then just zone out and clean.

now that the the dealer isn't washing the bike i mean servicing the bike  because the warranty has finished i let the rain wash the bike
