I plan on trying the Mr Clean system myself soon.
I use Gunk to get the road grime off the front and bottom of the engine. The judicious use of a garden hose is okay if one is careful not to get water in places like exhaust pipes, electrics and air filters. It can be done. Windex does great on the chrome and glass. A carnauba wax product is great for the paint.
As for the rust in the hex heads, use a cotton swab (Q-tip) with some 3-in-one oil on it to apply a fine rust preventive film. The cotton swab can also be used first to dry out the hex recess before applying the oil.
Bike cleaning time is also a good time for checking bolts, chain wear, chain lube, grease zerks...maintenance in general. Sometimes you find and prevent a problem from happening, that you would have otherwise missed, by stumbling across it while you are cleaning.
Enjoy your Adventurer.
