Soap and water weekly. Dry with the blaster and hit it with Turtle wax ice. The key is to keep them clean.

Scotch bright pad, ever new tire or whenever I can't stand it any longer which ever come first. Windex on the front. Got the front for $100 with a new tire on it and a fatboy chrome 3x16 rear which I did not have the heart to put on my rear 4.5x17 rear. Probably never find proper rear at that deal. Anyone got a good rear for a Deuce?
