Cultivated at the time not to wash each chamois exchange function, it keeps the delicate parts (body, tank, lights) are not scratchy, because if we use a cloth / chamois then impurities such as dirt, asphalt or sand from tires, wheels and the legs will stick feared, damaging other delicate parts.
The soap we use is also not carelessly, appropriate use soap to wash the vehicle, do not use soap to wash clothes

wash starting from the bottom to the top, start by wetting the entire surface of the Bike, and then start rubbing the legs and engine parts, only after that body part or a tank and lights
 

For the drying process, start from the top down to the bottom, with the objective section is dry not hit the water again when wiping the top.

For the tires, having washed, to be more visible we can use polish shiny tires, a lot of brands in the market from cheap to expensive though

there is a little extra, for a Racing exhaust install (usually the output holes wider than the standard), before washing (especially when using steam wash) cover the hole with plastic or other mark use for the exhaust closed, this may litle thing, but if the Bike is often washed rainy season, especially after a long time inside the muffler will rust quickly, usually after washing the Bike, the exhaust given oil few, perhaps protect from rust, but these efforts did not work, so that  exhaust smoke like pogging.

And finally, pay attention to electrical parts, the most problematic part plugs, rubber plugs usually fast brittle and cracked, if you have this caution might after washing the Bike can not turn on, you can cover the first part of the protective rubber plugs with plastic, if you go to washing place usually say to the steam wash, the spark plugs should not be sprayed.
