Cleaning accessories Mr Sheen. Over the years I found this the best product for cleaning your motorcycles. This is the cheapest and simplest thing to use especially on painted fairings. Leaves a nice glossy surface, however it doesn't last if is rained on. Perfect for cleaning the rims ! Does the rubber bits too, like that rubber thing on the mirror stalks. Mind you the usual 'plastic and rubber protectant' for car dashes work just as for the stalks. Try this first before using any other cleaning product. JIF - Household cleaner. How to clean alloy wheels on a motorcycle? - believe it or not householder cleaners are pretty good on cars and bikes. This week I had the problem of cleaning off brake and road grime of a set of alloys wheels. They hadn't been cleaned for at least 10 years. I tried everything including some CRC products and other brand name wheel cleaners. They had no or very minimal effect what so ever much to my disappointment. In desperation I tried Jif and WOW - with a little scrubbing it actually and noticeably worked. (Not for fairings!) Plexus - Plastic cleaner Protectant & Polish.
I'm sure everyone knows the heartache of seeing your Hayabusa's
plastics deteriorate. Hence to prevent and fix all those fine
scratches try this product. The front screen of my bike was looking
a tad sad. I used this stuff and now it looks almost new. It doesn't
do the really deep scratches but on the smaller ones it works
perfectly - quite amazing stuff. This cleaning system produces the best results I've ever seen. Produces a fantastic gloss. Special ingredient is Carbonra Wax. Polish does not scratch the paint if surface is prepared properly. But remember you don't really need to polish if the paint work is in good condition - just waxing will do. Likewise on a new bike waxing is all that is needed for the next few years. Rhino Car alarm. Cheap, easy to install system 2 wire !. Can be attached to a ignition cut-out. Current sensing and in built multiple level shock sensor. Of course use it in conjunction with a wheel or disc lock. I use it when minimal security only required Ie. hearing distance. Read more about Motorcycle security. Maxima Chain Wax. Made in the USA it says it has a special formula Paraffin Wax. Lube is required every about 600-700kms. Darwin is a pretty hot place and this lube seems to last the longest. Other brands tried PJ1. EQUUS ECU code readers.
I don't know if this works for motorcycles but I know it definitely
works for cars! If your FI warning light come on you certainly want
to know what's wrong. The link to the best value ECU code reader I
could find. Pls email if you've successfully got it to work on your
motorcycle -Thanks. Tank guards.
There are so many of these things that have been released over the
years that I don't really have to say much. However those new to
motorcycles this is an essential accessory if you want to keep your
tank scratch free. Plastic or carbon fibre take your pick!
I personally recommend the Ventura - Light guard because it's saved
me replacing the head light cover several times over the years of
not just the Hayabusa but any number of other bikes. |
