That simple green stuff didn't impress me when I used it, but I heard it was good.

I know I have always heard not to use a wire brush on a o-ring chain but I have done it for years with no bad results.
Just don't bare down to hard and it really keeps the sprocket and chain happy.

Mothers wax is real good too for chrome parts.

The power washer works good except if your not careful you can easily damage the barrings.Thats is some hot *** high pressured water comming out that thing blowing water past the gaskets and into the bearings.
I have always tryed to use a regular garden hose.
I have alwys heard that I could be wrong.Even sometimes you see a factory mx racer using a power washer to clean his bike on the cover of a mag. etc..They can do that since they rebuild the thing every race.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I use dish soap to start and get all the plastic clean. I then use Mothers polish on all polished items. I use Honda cleaner/wax spray on the chrome and Mop and glow on all plastic to give her a purty shine. I swear by Mop and glow for palstic. Once you start gettting a film up it is easyier to wash and it lets mud slide right off.
