I have been using VERY HOT water and Norwex cloths.  One to wash, one to buff / dry.  No soap.  I do small areas at a time, wash it then buff it dry right away.  Has been working well, I use very little water, no soap.  I re-wax the bike about once a month if it needs it or not, that helps keep the bugs & road gunk from sticking too hard to the paint / windscreen.

Another vote for S-100 in the shade and after the bike cools off.

I just wet mine down really well before washing with a microfiber mitt and Griot's Garage car wash.  If bugs are really stuck on the fairing, I might take a wet towel and put it on the fairing for a few minutes to soak the bugs.  Between wet washes, I use Griot's Garage Spray Wash or Speed Shine and their microfiber towels.
Just some good, hot water to soften it all up. A good car wash detergent should do the rest. Sometimes, on the wheels, I spray a de- greaser then hose off.
