    The OL went to Walley World and came home with this new Mequires New Car kit.
    It has soap, liquid ultimate wax, tire gel, 2 applicator pads, 2 polish cloths, a mit.
    It is some really good stuff. The wax don't turn white and comes off real easy. And the shine is super good.

    CB, you need to look at getting some of that clear bra stuff and adding it to the tank area where your legs rub the tank. I keep having to put some Maguires on mine and rub the dull out. Used the new 3" air buffing pad to polish it out, did a great job.

    that's great keeping kit together with your nicest bike, i would say something how to get nicest bikes as are now a fad that almost everybody enjoys, especially those in the middle and upper class in the society, who can have the luxury to afford lavishness in their choice and use of bikes, aside from cars, of course! And they spend time to see more at motorcycle center. And surely, motorcycle enthusiasts would all be looking for the top of the class and above the edge models and styles. They would also be expecting that their bike will render only one of its kind biking and motorcycling adventures.
    So how do you choose the best bike then?

    First, you have to look at the tires. The motorcycle tires should be strong and reliable enough because it is the ones that link your bike to the ground. Your tires need to have strong grip and hold so slipping accidents can be minimized it cannot be avoided. There are tires for specific purpose and terrain. Your tires should also stand the test of bad weather and bad roads. You will need varied tires for the purpose of going to work or for picking kids at school or for bringing your wife to the supermarket and for going on tough competitions as In Motocross and Moto GP.

    How your bikes emits gas and how it sounds as the different chemical reactions happen inside your bike’s engine should also be put into consideration. Your motorcycle exhausts play an important role in finding out if your engine is still working properly or if you already need to take it to the nearest garage and repair shop.

    Once you have decided on the kind of bike that your need, then your next step is to find the best motorcycle center that can offer you the nicest and the kind of bike that you want and that you need. The center should be able to provide you with all the information you need and has the display of the many different bikes to choose from in their showroom. These days, we already have the easy access on these motorcycle center as you can visit them in their physical location or find a site on the internet relating to such business.

    My last bike was a 08 Electra Glide Standard. It had 46,000 on it.
    I worked all last year part time and saved the money for a downpay ment on this bike.
    I traded in the 08 and paid down money to only owe 12,000 on the bike.
    I ain't rich by no means.
    I live in a old shack build in 69 that I've worked on off and on. It still ain't finished.
    I didn't buy a big nice house. I don't have a nice new truck,
    Most everthing I have is paid for. This is the only way I could have a nice bike.
    And other than warranty work I will be doing all the work myself.
    I been riding since 69.
    I got a new bike that had everthing on it, instead of buying a bike and adding everything to it.

    Don't know where you got all yer figuring but it don't fit me.

    BTW remember that stuff has to be rubbed on
    and rubbed off, and if you find yourself rubbing it after
    4 hours or more, you need to go a doctor....

    When you git it. read the directions. It makes cleanin yer bike pretty easy.
    The wax goes on super easy, and what's great, it comes off as easy of it went on. And the towels they have in the box I really like.
    The shine on the bike is really good.

    Let us know how you like it.
