Don't bother with it.

Simple Green.

Griot's Garage Best of Show wax, after washing with Griot's Car Wash
and cleaning with Griot's Paint Cleaning Clay.
In between washings I'll use Griot's Speed Shine to give the bike a
quick clean/shine.

I'll use undiluted Car Wash to get the bugs off the front, or sometimes
Turtle Wax's Bug and Tar Remover. The latter, however, strips the wax
off as well as the bugs, so I usually try with Car Wash first (which
doesn't strip the wax).
I use Griot's Wheel Cleaner to scrub the rims, and CRC Brakleen to
clean the front caliper pistons. Sometimes I sponge on a very light
layer of Griot's Rubber Dressing on the seat if it's looking faded and
my butt doesn't slide around easily enough.
