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
