Be careful cleaning your tires. I've heard of a lot of guys downing their bikes after putting crap on there tires. I only use soap and water to clean my tires. I'd watch out for Honda Polish on the tires. Could make them really slick.

Did he write tire...I could have swore he wrote wheel? [&:]

That's a good reminder though to those who didn't know (or lack the common sense).

I have some real bad experiences with wheel cleaners. I will never use them again. I trashed two sets of wheels. I know motorcycle wheels dont get as hot as car wheels, but if you dont get all the cleaner off it will severely damage your wheels. The best thing is dish wash soap and some elbow grease, if that doesnt work use ICE wax and some elbow grease. I use the new ICE spray wax after every ride, this stuff is the shiznit. No build up etc.... I
