    Hello
    I joined yesterday live in poole

    I basically use most meguires products on fairing, a good quality car shampoo, (meguires gold class or autoglym body shampoo is good)
    Chain I clean with paraffin and lube with wurth chain lube
    No jet wash just sponge & buckets and brushes to get in small areas

    If you need to degrease anything I use gunk

    There was a guy who bought his sprint from a dealer near me and whilst he was away his dear old mum sprayed wd40 on his calipers as they were going rusty! Luckily he wasn't killed!!!!
