What's your preferred method of cleaning plastic parts such as the airbox insides?

Spray on wash wax, works without removing wax.

Oh, then Dawn it is, assuming Dawn is sold in the hinterlands.

Same way I clean my guitar(s)...smear some water from a tuna can on it, and have the cat lick it clean.

Only negative is that on a hot day, the exhaust can take on a fairly offensive 'bouquet'.
