I waxed the frame (like a big dummy). Do you know how I might remove the wax? It looks terrible.

WD-40 and some elbow grease should do the trick.

I've used Windex Advanced and/or ArmorAll Cleaning wipes.

And don't worry I get wax on my frame ALL the time!

I use Honda Spray polish. Works great on all surfaces and removes those pesky bugs. Don't worry your Buell won't mind if it's "Honda" spray ;+}

p.s. it will take off the wax too.

Use an old toothbrush, it helps dig the wax out of the low spots in the powdercoat.
