Washed it.

Just what is this "washing the bike"thing you guys talk about? where do I get this?any performance noticed?

It's an unpleasant endeavor your bike eventually guilts you into doing. You end up getting wet, the neighbors use it as a chance to stop and bother you, and it's especially stressful if the weather is actually pleasant enough to ride the thing.
Would not recommend.

I washed it once, highly overrated, I couldn't tell the difference.

I did the starter motor replacement and added an extra negative cable. My bike wouldn't start below 30 degrees, but now it turns right over at 16! The whole project took maybe 30 minutes.

I like washing the bike, I do it every time it gets dirty (every time I go out in winter). gives me chance to look her over for any issues such as rust spots or cable / connector covers coming loose. Its how I noticed slight leak from forks last time I cleaned her.

Just looks cool when she's clean and shinny.

I ride Brahma home from the dealers after an extended stay of 2.5 weeks.

Well it was 71 degrees when I got home from work but sad to say I had other matters to attend to so all I got to do was look at the Rocket and admire it for a few moments. I know, my priorities are seriously out of whack.

But why was it at home when you were at work? That makes no sense to me at all...
