Every week I wash and wax my bike----NOT!
However on the rare occasion (twice since new) I do clean it I appreciate a cleaner that cuts grease and gets the plastic done at the same time. I searched around for the "Holy Grail" of cleaners and eureka I have found it. "Pure Citrus Orange Cleaner" put out by North American Oil Co. is amazing stuff. Spokes like new with little effort and the plastic shines.
If you are looking for that extra powerful cleaner, put this on your list.

And to top that off, most "Dollar" stores carry it for ... drum roll
please.... about a Dollar..
May be different brand, but have had good luck with just about all of
the "Orange Powered" cleaners.

Hello all,
I'm looking for a way to clean my KLR. I'd like it to be as clean as
possible. I can do the plastics, the tank, the seat, the windshield
just fine. It's the dirt in those little tight spots in the engine,
the grease, the wheels and spokes, and tires... all the hard-to-clean
stuff. So, I went searching through the list archives and found this
post. Will this stuff suit for what I am looking for? If so, can
anyone show me where to get it? My closest search so far yields a ton
of differing things:
http://www.google.com/products?q=citrus+orange+cleaner&btnG=Search+Products&hl=en&show=dd
Which one is it that I should be getting, provided that this is what
I'm looking for? If it isn't, what should I be using to detail it?
Thanks for any help.
Scott

Seems like a lot of bother. When I bought my '95 they told me it was
cleaned at the factory. Now it kind of looks like a 'Barbie' that
spent too many nights on the street corner.

Heh! Though I recognized the area. My sister-in-law lives 22
miles to the due south in Waterloo. I've never been on 2 wheels
out there but would love to!
Great pictures.
