Well i can say that GT85 is really good stuff. I find it alot better tan WD40 for general use. I also use it to clean all around the engine. It obviously burns off as the engine heats up but it does leave an anti corosive coating on there too and makes cleaning easier the more you use it. If you buy it in bulk from Ebay it works out at least half the price of most shop prices. I think i paid about £14 for 6 cans of the stuff about 6 months ago. It almost goes without saying but make sure you don't get any on brake components or tyres.
For future reference its also best to clean and lube the chain when you get back from a ride and the chain has heat built up in it. The lube sticks better as the chain cools down rather than just spraying it on an already cold chain. When sprayed on a cold chain, most of the lube flies off after the first coouple of miles on your next ride out.
P.S. ACF50 is also great for general cleaning but is about £15 a can so i only use that for my winter 'Deep Clean'.
Yamaha Fazer 'the only bike you'll ever need' maybe ???
