For anyone planning on buying an air force dryer(or any of the similar units), you can get them a lot cheaper if you find a place that sells dog grooming supplies.  Dog groomers use those exact same units to dry off dogs they are washing.

I have one I use on my bike(works great, the hot filtered air is the key)& I saved over $75 on it by buying it from a grooming supply house.  I don't remember where I got it, but I found it doing a google search for grooming supplies.

Yo All,
I purchased one of the spot free Mr. Clean car wash kits, store offered me money back if I was not satisfied.  I gotta tell ya, it works pretty darn good.  Trick is, use regular hose and such to wash the bike, then hook up the Mr. Clean to apply some Mr. Clean soap then spot free rinse.  Reason is that Mr. Clean uses a filter that cost bout $6 and only last 10 washes, if ya use the above method, you can use it a lot longer.  The filter removes any impurities and minerals in the water.   Also the Mr. Clean has very little jet spray even in the wash mode.  Funny to think bout that after spendin $30k on the darn cycle!  he he ..........Anyhow, you wash the bike good, follow the spot free rinse directions, and in bout 15 minutes to 30 minutes later, dang near spot free.  I do take the leaf blower and do a quicky on the dash area and motor.

I have no idea DAWG, I just did a Google search on dog grooming suppliers(or something like that).  I bought the thing a couple years ago & didn't save any of the info.

The force dryer sounds like something I want to buy.  Does anyone have experience with the 8hp and think it is worth the extra money or not?



I've got the 4hp unit.  Car club buddy has the bigger one and I've used it.  I prefer the smaller one.  Works great.
