I use dishwashing soap and water as it says in the manual and I use the soft harley wash mit. I use slow running water to rinse it and then I dry it with the harley soft drying towel. I am trying to be very careful with this denim finish.

What I really like about the denim is that they will all look different over time. Unlike a shiny finish that you can just keep on waxing the denim will get it's own characteristic after a while.
On my former "D" I only cared about washing the dirt away, and for that any washing up liquid and water will suffice, but it's the nature of a denim paint to get that wear and tear look. If you wanted to keep it clean of smudges, fingerprints and small scratches you picked the wrong colour imho.
Besides, I've always had the mind set of that the paint job or finish doesn't make the bike go faster, that's why I've never liked chrome, too much hassle for no apparent advantage.
So what about looks you ask? It's a DX period!

Dawn works great I use it, all detailers recommend it for the initial wash before anything,then claybar,then wax.
