not at all...............

the old v twin with a silver motor and shaft drive was a lot quicker to clean, exhausts were mainly on the side etc.

The 4 cylinders headers are at the front, collect all of the road grime and bugs, to clean and polish the exhaust alone when it gets filthy is a good 2 hour or more job, the black engine shows every little bit of dirt that you miss, to do the engine, swing arm, chain and under the rear gaurd and relube the chain is another 1 1/2 to 2 hours, the rest isn't too bad, just a wash, dry and polish.

If it's just a bit dusty, a quick hose off, dry and polish can be done in an hour or so, as soon as the engine or exhaust is dirty a quick wash is at least 2 hours

when I got back from my Qld trip last year it took 8 hours to get it looking 1/2 respectable and another 2 or 3 washes to get it looking properly clean again

Security must've been a bit sloppy, letting arseholes in with flares. They search you for everything else.

Settle. It was just tongue-in-cheek weak attempt at humour/sarcasm.

I can spend upwards of 4 hours washing, polishing and doing all the chrome on my Falcon.

If it has been in the shed for a few weeks, even covered as it normally is, it is still a 1.5-2 hour process.

If I'm heading out on a car club cruise or to a show it would be 4 hours minimum.

Steam them.

Get an old kettle element, drill out a hole big enough to fit the assembly through the bottom (on the side) of one of the big heavy plastic buckets, crabs in any old wire basket, a few inches of water, get it boiling, crabs in and lid on. 11 mintues later, perfect.
