When I got my 83 14 years ago, I could hardly ride the bike at night due to the poor condition of the windshield. It was covered with small scratches and any oncoming cars blinded me. I went thru a series of sanding and polishing operations until I made it just about like new and fortunately I never broke thru the hardcoat. Since then, I have always used Plexus routinely and it has really helped to keep it in very good condition. Like some other things we like to use routinely, like Sea Foam, the price has gone up a bunch lately. I used to be able to get the small can of Plexus for about $7 and the large for $11. The last small can of Plexus I bought with tax was about $11 and the big was $15. Now, the small can is almost $17 and the large would be $23 and this was at my independent cycle shop and his prices are pretty good. I also checked the local bike retailer and prices were a little higher. The guy at the independent shop also noted the price increase and suggested I try something else he had. He says it is the same as the Honda polish and works fine. The small can is about $5.50 and the large can is less than $8. So, I bought a small can and so far, it is working very good. It seems to be slightly thicker than Plexus and I am now using less, but it seems to clean and polish and comes off clean. It is a lot like Plexus in the type cloth you use makes a big difference and a cotton towel works better than a blend. Here is a picture of the can. RandyA

after all the other tire threads but... I keep reading that Avons are great but you get some bounce or wobble or some other adverse affect around 85MPH and up. True or Not? I have Commanders now and they have been great (smooth as glass up to 100). Needing to replace the front at 18,500. my last rear went 12k. You guys are spooking me off of Avons with this wobble talk - I routinely hit 85 and frequently above it - and I like everything to stay nice and steady. (Sorry to start this again, I went back and dug through the other threads and cant really find much definitive)
