What are you using to clean your Fatboy wheels?
New to the forum and was wondering how to clean these aluminum wheels. I have the 2019 Fatboy 114 and love the bike but the wheels are a pain to get water spots off. Open for suggestions. Thx

Dawn, with a soft brush, rinse it off. Dont let anything set.
Do Not Use a chemical based cleaner.

I just use good quality bike wash, rinse, then dry them with a thick car drying cloth. I wax them once a month with auto wax and don’t get any water marks at all doing this and people are always asking me if the bike is brand new.

Pledge furniture polish and a lint free cloth on the entire bike. Too easy, simple and effective to bother fussing over anything else.
Give it a shot.
