  • Victory Motorcycle Detail

    I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing at 6:30 this morning, a guy I know who reguarly goes to the same diner as I do wanted his bike detailed, He really wanted to get it done today, I agreed since what I had origianlly planned to do today was a little less profitable.

    The bike was not in that great of shape. There were a few RIDS here and there, some oil and mud from going riding last weekend, there was also some really caked on brake dust on the rear wheels.

    Here is a lengthy list of Meguiars products used to complete this detail:

    Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner
    Detailing Clay (Mild)
    Last Touch Spray Detailer
    Ultimate Compound
    SwirlX
    #7 - Show Car Glaze
    NXT Generation Tech Wax 1.0
    Hyper-Dressing
    Hot Rims Mag Aluminum Polish
    Hot Rims Chrome Polish
    Quik Interior Detailer
    Quik Wheel Detailer
    Gold Class Rich Leather Spray
    PlastX Clear Plastic Cleaner & Polish
    #18 - Clear Plastic Detailer

      Always have loved the Victorys. It looks great. How do you do it, Nick? Everything you touch looks absolutely flawless.

      A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

          Nick, that bike looks great!!
          Bikes take a lot of time, but at the end the effort pays

          Just one question, did you dress the tires?

            Yes, I used Hyperdressing but wiped all the excess residue away at the end.

                They sure look nice!
                When I detail a bike I usually give them a good cleaning with APC, I never dress just because I want to be safe and be sure that the bike won't slip.

                  I wiped them down pretty good with a terry towel and they didnt feel greasy or slippery, plus Hyperdressing isnt too slippery to begin with.

                  thanks for the kind words everyone.

                    If he's ever leaning that far to be on the sidewalls of the tires he's got some other problems. Looks good too

                      Great work Nick. Bikes can be as time consuming as a car or truck.
