Blow-Dryer Throw away the chamois, rags, and Q-tips. The Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co.
has a method for drying motorcycles that is so quick and easy it will blow you
away. The company’s Air Force Blaster (pictured) and larger Air Force Master
Blaster (with wheels) were specifically designed for drying bikes with dry,
filtered, heated air that is 20 to 25 degrees warmer than the ambient
temperature. Five to seven minutes is all it takes to blow-dry a motorcycle from
top to tread—without water spots. A heavy-duty 10-foot hose allows freedom to
move around the bike, while five neoprene nozzle attachments allow you to adjust
airflow as needed, from blowing water off large expanses of paint and chrome, to
honing in on those maddening little spaces such as cylinder fins, springs, and
spokes. Both units feature all-steel construction, but the Master Blaster
provides twice the horsepower (eight), along with the ability to adjust airflow
and temperature to three different levels. (Click image to enlarge)
Price: Blaster $229.99; Master
Blaster $399.99. Contact: Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co.,
