Metro air blaster dryer...anyone use one???

I've been using the leaf blower to get the excess water off my bike but was wondering it these heated blowers work any better or faster. Does the heated air pretty much eliminate any wiping down with a cloth?
Thanks,
Rick

I have one also, love it. I have some wiping to do when I'm done just not quite as much as I had with the leaf blower. Best part is I don't have to listen to that damn screaming 2 stroke.

I use the hair dryer for the engine, and the curling iron for the saddlebag straps.

I have one of these, not quite like Metro but then it's just a little cheaper, works for me:



Cylcle Dry
$47.95 Includes S&H

Powerful as a leaf blower. Only 15 inches long. Flexible rubber nozzle. Weighs only 5lbs. One hand operation with lock-trigger. Comes with storage pouch.

I have one too.

Don't use it too much now since I stopped using water on my bike. It IS a great piece of equipment though.

I know use it as a hair dryer....
