Simply green I know of But have never heard of bike bright.
Is this something that Harleys dealers normally carry. Can I
get Bike Brite at other stores. How are these with paint or getting
on the engine cases. Any problems here.
If I use a pressure washer do I have to worry about overspray getting
on the paint and hurting it. I usually hand wash the bike but want a
Good / Fast cleaner for the wheels. Thanks....

I like to spray S100 on my wheels, let it soak, and hose it off. I let it soak about one beers worth...comes out great and I don't have to touch anything. This suggestion came from a buddy, and it hasn't failed me yet.

I was thinking about this post yesterday when I was cleaning my ride. S100 is a lot like Simple Green. I will probably switch to Simple Green when this bottle is empty. I use Simple Green to clean all the motors of my vehicles. I use the same principle, spray it on, drink a beer, hose it off. Works very well. The Simple Green is cheaper and you can buy it in bulk at SAMS.

I swear by Bike brite for cleaning not only the wheels but the entire bike. No more srubbing and I can drink a beer at the same time. It really works great. I buy mine at autozone. They are the only auto store that I have seen that carries it. Give it a try.
