Foaming lance & shampoo

I remember a while ago someone was raving about a shampoo bought on another forum along with a lance....

I managed my motorbike outside for one night, and it rained.... so now I need to wash it, and want to try the shampoo foam instead of a sponge...

Any recomendations?

I used a pressure washer on my bike and it mis-fired for ages. Use a sponge.

I bought my lance from Autobritedirect. It was about 50 quid but reassuringly heavy with a metal body and brass fittings. Their foam is good too.

Thats right, they do 2 types the brass and the plastic bodies.
The brass is more costlier but is far better quality and a has better adjustment
