Simple Green degreaser, not Simple Green all purpose cleaner combined with a pressure washer. DS turns out real purty every time, check out my pics, she's an '01 with lots of dirty miles, unlike those sand sissies, kidding guys!

Simple Green used to be the shiznit, it's been kicked to the curb by Purple Power. How this stuff is still legal in California I have no idea. It works amazingly well.
If not washing the whole bike and just want to hit some oily spots I use carb cleaner. High preassure and it evaporates after the cleaning is done. No fuss no muss.
