Both of my bikes seem to attract Wasps. No not a "WASP" wasp, just wasps. Should I fit a anti-wasp "wasping system" or just buy a "non wasp" bike? Can you buy them on E-Bay and do you need to do a TPS reset. (Message edited by Uly_man on September 12, 2012) | ||

Clean the Bugs off, likely they're coming to scavenge them. Color? Yellow is the Suicide switch for Bees, I used to be allergic, no yellow on my bike or riding gear... b | ||

Ooooh, they love my blue bike too. I do agree it is the bug carcasses that seem yummy to them. A fellow coach noticed the attraction when I was up north and asked what I used to wash my bike. Being the sometimes smart AZZ that I am, I responded "Honey. Do you think that's a problem?" | ||

Switch to Amsoil, that'll solve it. | ||

Switch to Amsoil, that'll solve it. Ski, I'm so glad your bike is running again and you've regained your sense of humor!!  | ||

If you don't have a sense of humor, you should avoid riding a Buell. | ||

Do you use pledge on them? That seems to attract them. | ||

I used Orange Pledge furniture polish for cleaning my face shield(I don't like lemon scent in my face all day). I stopped at a state park while on a long trip, leaving the helmet on the bike, I went into their building for a moment. As I got back to the bike another rider in the parking lot told me to be careful as I approached my bike, bees were all around it. There were several on and in the helmet. One of those riders had some bug spray that chased them away. Otherwise I probably would have been there until dark! | ||

Some perfumes are known to attract bugs too... | ||

Are you talking about the insect variety or some of the neighbors?  |
