AutoGeek's S100 motorcycle cleaner products
Has anyone used the S100 motorcycle cleaner products by AutoGeek? http://www.autogeek.net The prices seem reasonable, they are supposedly designed specifically for motorcycles and I need something to do next weekend (that will keep me out of trouble).
I'm looking for recommendations about this and other products that work as well. Thanks in advance for your help!

I've used total motorcycle cleaner and the silicon spray after washing and inbetween washings. Both work very well together.

Yes I've used them. They seem to work just like any other automotive cleaner.
The Harley dealerships in this area keep s100 product in stock.

I have used S100 Engine Brightener and it works great! Makes the black paint on your engine parts black and shiney again...no more gray.

yes, I have used S100 products before, but I picked them up locally. I have never done business with autogeek. I have only used the S100 cleaner/polish, it seemed to work fine.

Thanks for the positive replies. I will be giving the getaway vehicle a once over this weekend and will try the s100 stuff along with the Meguiars line of motorcycle polishes. My local Harley dealer has it also so I'll pick some up this week. Can't wait till they try to sell me a bike along with my cleaner! I will purposely ride slowly to my local Kawi dealer who is a block away, grinning happily on "Peggy". Only because the Harley I want/need costs 5 times what I paid for my Nomad. Someday, maybe... or maybe not.

I think their Engine Brightener is their best overall product, use that on my engine and it really makes the "jugs" look new and clean again.

If you really want to clean your paint up try using an automotive clay bar. I cleaned my bike up with one last year and it really made a difference! Most of the automotive parts stores carry it.

I have used S100 for years on my chain drive bikes. It really cleans the rim, swingarm and all other areas from the oil. I clean the chain & sprockets too, but make sure to run the bike a minute and re-oil the chain lightly. I know a guy who had quick chain wear and I always wondered if he just washed the chain too much.
We use it on the FXWG and keeps it looking great. (uh-oh, here come the leaking Harley jokes...) Havent used it on the Nomad. It tends to stay pretty spotless!
