I use the grease/hand wipes to clean up my WW on both bikes. Not a lot of work really.
Look damn nice.

An hour just to wash it....holy crap lol. I spray it down with that harley cleaner let sit for a bit then hose er down an a blow dry with the leaf blower maybe 15 min tops. then into the garage an up on the jack I have a low mechanics chair on wheels so im sitting eye level with engine and I can rotate the wheels. I use a spray on wax for the chrome and a 2 stage wax for the tins. I don't ride in the rain and I don't let the bike get so dirty it would take 2 days to clean. The brake dust makes the WW's dirty very fast.

I admit that I don't do the individual spokes I don't have the patience for that I figure when the spokes start to rust I will just throw away the wheels and buy new ones lol!

Exactly. I use Brillo pads, they work great. I DID use Wesleys Bleach White until some of it got on an aluminum part and permanently stained it. That was the end of that.
