Sweet looking wheels. From my experience, no other wheel gets noticed as much as a fat spoke big wheel. Keeping them clean isn't really terrible, the spokes themselves don't seem to get too bad... mainly it's the rim that needs constant attention.

Thanks! I like cleaning my bike....... It's one of my favorite hobbies with the exception of actually riding it...... I like my sled to look fresh!

In the 50's today..... Got it out for about 70 miles...... The brakes pulse a little, and the hum is still there a bit. Stopped by stealership..... They said not to worry and that the pads and rotors will mate soon. Also told me my brembos are designed for floating rotors, not solid..... So it might cause a little harmonic hum..... Told me to quit whining and start riding!
