Products that Kick Ass #1: Motul Moto Wash

     I hate cleaning.  But I like a clean bike.  Something to do with if you're not fast, at least you can look fast.  Or having some pride in the machine you race.  Anyway, I still hate to clean so anything that makes the job easier is very welcome and I've tried all sorts of products to varying degrees of sucess.
     I recently picked up a bottle of Motul Moto Wash the other day.  When I wash a bike, unless it really needs a super deep cleaning I like to just wet rag it and use the corresponding cleaner for whatever region of the bike I'm working on.  Brake clean on the brakes, chain degreaser on the chain and surrounding areas and some sort of general wash for the rest of the bike.  Which is where the Moto Wash comes into play and this stuff works great.  Out of all the cleaners I've used so far this one works the quickest on everything from general grim to dried bug juice to the rubber marks from tire marbles flung off the track.  As I said before I just like to load up a wet rag but the heavier areas I sprayed down and soaked for a minute before wiping.  I'm not too concerned with a spotless showroom cleaning, just what I call race clean.  This stuff did one better and left the bike with a nice shine to boot.
     One note, I'm not sponsored by Motul or any shops/suppliers of this product, I just thought it was pretty damn good so I thought I'd throw a review up.
