You can use Plexus, however Pledge is also a great cleaner/polisher. However if you need to renew the plastic, Montana Jacks offers a stripper and polisher kit.

I use Armor All but pledge sounds like a better idea. Anything that makes it easier to hose the mud off.

I can vouch for the Pledge. I use it on my Goldwing also but the only problem is that the Lemon Pledge attracts flying insects which like to sting if provoked!

I use Tire Wet on my 400EX trail quad plastic. Makes it shine!
I use ArmorAll on my 450R

IMO the best thing you can do is clean it with any soap/water combo, and then use a good carnauba wax........ put one a couple thick coats of the wax and that will give you a nice barrier. Of course nothing will keep them perfect forever, but I find the wax really helps keep them looking fresh for a longer time....

Anybody else use Foaming tire cleaner?
On old neglected Fourtrax, it worked wonders after a pressure wash.
Also makes underbody and suspension look clean again. Don't know if it will hurt anything in the long run, but sure is a quick fix to get a clean shine! Does great and old film like dirt that would need scrubbing otherwise.
