The ONLY wax/sealant I have found you can put on the H-D OEM windshield is Liquid Glass Ultimate Auto Polish.
Why you ask? Rain-X WILL cause the H-D OEM windshield to to completely fog-up (totally ruined) in 1-2 months.
I have also used Reload and Bugslide successfully.
I think coatings really are the way to go for bikes. They can get trashed so much more quickly than cages, so that extra sacrificial layer is great. I typically do CQuartzUK followed by Reload.
Another vote for not using any type of dressing on the tires. It doesn't take much at all to sling off and hit the tread, and then the owner wrecks his bike. Bad day for all.
I prefer coatings or a sealant or wax. I have used CQuartz Finest on Harley's and it works great.

I've not tried Reload on a windshield but I'm glad to hear you have had success with it.
Reload works great on top of CQuartz. so now I only need to carry on item in my saddlebag.
For windscreens, I have used Plexus for years and have had great success with it. S100 is great for prepping the engine, undercarriage, wheels etc, for washing. I do use a PW, but only for the wheels, tires, pipes, foot boards, etc. If you aren't familiar with HD's, have the owner remove things like the seats, bags, etc. There are different set ups and the last thing you want to do is break or bend some quick release pins in the bags. HI have done many HD details and have one of my own. I recommend to the customer that we use a sealant or coatings because HD engines run extremely hot, especially the 103's.
Still having problems uploading photos, so here is a link to photos of the Street Glide I did a couple weeks ago.
