    It has been mentioned in other threads, but, Hydrogen Peroxide works great for disolving the bugs. I am currently using a 50/50 solution with water.

    I'm rather partial to Lucas Oil's Slick Mist. I keep a bottle in the frunk. It's a great, quick way to give your bike a nice shine in less than five minutes. I also use it on the windscreen. It makes bug removal easier when the time comes. Also, spraying on bug ridden parts and letting it set for a minute will remove them pronto. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1370658938.016868.jpg

    I found it on UK E-Bay and I'll have it by Tuesday. Thanks for taking the time to recommend this stuff, now that our weather has warmed up the Kamikaze bugs are out in force.

    I use Gater Glo on my Spyder. Just spray and wipe. Works really good on windshield also.

    Pro Honda Cleaner is the best I've found and I use it on everything except rubber and leather.

    Default Bugs Bugs Bugs

    I've tried many and recently was at the Auto Show in Florida where IBIZ was demonstrating all their products, including World Class Waterless Wash and Wax. So as any 'show goer' does, I watched and listened. Well, to my surprise, it actually works in the real world of Bugs Bugs Bugs. Also leaves a nice slick on everything, including the windscreen so the water really leaves in the rain. Not trying sell anything but I do recommend it. Easy on and easy off. If the bugs don't wipe off the first time, wait a few seconds and viola...gone.

    www.waxdirect.com

    will link you to complete line up of products that are pretty good.

    There's no need to dilute the Hydrogen Peroxide. HP is H2O2, basically its water with an extra molecule of Oxygen. Its store in a brown container because after an extend period in daylight it becomes H20 (water).

    The peroxide you buy at the drugstore is already diluted...usually only 3% hydrogen peroxide by volume. It makes no sense to dilute it further. If you can find the 6% stuff, even that should not require further dilution. The 30% lab grade peroxide might. Food grade 68% peroxide would for sure.
