Nice rides guys!Here's a pic of my 2010 Streetglide. Screaming Eagle tuner, heavy breather and a Vance and Hines two into one. Been all over the southeast with her. My favorite trip was getting to ride it to the "Kings" house. TCB.

Yeah...... It looks sweet but is a total pain to clean. You have to use special cleaners nothing with any silicone or it will lose the matte finish. The manual and dealership says your not even supposed to clean it with water! The dumbest thing iv ever heard. So I asked them "What about those of us that actually ride and get our bikes dirty"! He just shrugged and that was it. I put on average 8 to 10K a year since i bought it. Iv also heard of people using Dawn dish soap. Also even some of the dealerships don't use the HD cleaners they use Windex. But all in all I love it and wouldn't trade it for anything.

I have the Black Denim on my Night Rod. I love it, I just wash it with dish detergent and then I use an electric leaf blower to dry it. Easy, easy, easy.

Most of the time I use Dawn but I've used Joy or what ever the wife has under the sink. Never had any problems.

Thanks for the info Sam, I will have to try it if we can ever get out of these sub zero temps and back to normal. Does it streak or does it rinse real easy?

It rinses off no problem and no streaks. Bike looks like it just came out of the factory.

Washing my Road Glide is a PITA, wish it was Black Denim. I spend more time making it look good than riding it. Think I'm going to off it this spring.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
