Mine looks better as the dirt doesn't show as much....
Are you inferring that a clean looking bike is preferable Jim?I think he is saying that things look better from the seat vs holding a pail and hose

Keeping bugs and roadgrime on paint for long extended periods of time, is very bad for the finish.
Agreed. I have no shame in the fact that I keep my Concours clean.

I on the other hand am a bit OCD. I like to keep my house, yard, garage, bike, truck, and beer paraphernalia (this is a must if you want to make good beer), clean and organized. It makes me feel better and things seem to last longer, which for the bike translates to more riding for me.
Can't really say that mine is clean per say, but it sure isn't caked with anything either. I try to take care of everything I have the best I can, without being OCD about it.

Who wants to be the guy out in the parking lot in the evening drink'n beer talk'n bike with a filthy bike and a windshield covered with bugs. You might as will put a sign on your bike saying, "I'm lazy and don't take care about my stuff."

Gumbi & Max,Who you trying to kid?
Which wax do you guys use? I've never waxed mine, just plain water on a micro-fiber towell here, but I guess after 2 years I should put some wax on her...

I was just trying to make a point so you never boge out on another ride with Rob and I. Wishful thinking huh?
For real, I've never waxed her... It was actually a serious question.
