My bike

[AspenF150]

'97 Honda Shadow Spirit 1100C. Sorry for no before pics but it did pretty good at first. After I washed it, I noted the gloss needed some help so I did a SFP by hand all over it and that really helped to bring it to life. My process follows:

Wash with Hyper-Wash and Viking Chenille mitt
Dry with Autopia WW MF towels and shop vac on blower setting
Meguiars #82 SFP with foam applicator
buff off with Autopia mf towels
wax with Meguiars NXT x2 and foam applicator. Waiting 24hrs between coats
Buff with Autopia MF towels

looks very good mike. do you get out much on it?

[AspenF150]

Thanks maximv1. It has about 9400 miles on it. I use it for my daily running around stuff and highway cruising provided the weather is good and just use my truck for crappy weather. It's never been dumped over on it's side and I don't really run it too hard. In your Avatar, is that your bike?? I really like the look of it. Is that a Fatboy? Thanks again,,,,98

ya that's my baby.it's an 04 fatboy. i use anytime the weather allows. usless it is raining or snowing i don't touch my car. nothing like wind in your face eh?

[AspenF150]

You said it man! Wind in your face, the sounds of the open world and bugs in your teeth :beer The bugs are the reason why I have the windsheild as you see. I got that windsheild through my Dennis Kirk catalog about a year ago and have been very happy with it. Thanks,,,,,98

i had a sportster before this and rode for about two years without a windshield. as soon as i got one i swore i would never ride without one again. when i got this bike i didn't buy w indshield because i want to tput on a light bar and it take a special windshield, but i sure miss it. a bug in the cheek at 65 mph HURTS
