Yes, for the main chassis and engine parts. I find that its great for cleaning stuff thats just a bit grimey, rather than caked in ****e, and it leaves a bit of protection behind too. Just keep it well away from your discs (I cover mine if there's a danger of overspray) because its contains some sort of ptfe/teflon compound which doesn't do a lot of good to your brakes.
Actually I seldom wash the entire bike these days as it removes all the protective greasiness from the nooks and crannies. As long as I don't take it out on salty roads, it probably only gets one good wash per year.
