I use my center stand to help spin the wheel but still have to lay down on the garage floor to get to the wheel without removing the bags.

I use a Daytona small wheels brush I got for my wife's car from autogeek.net with all of my detailing supplies. I take the bags off and just use the brush with the soap I was the bike with. Be careful using chemicals on clearcoated wheels. It can make the cleacoat cloudy and look like crap. Chrome wheels are pretty safe to use chemicals on. This small brush does a good job reaching around the wheel, behind the swing arm, and in between the spokes. I have the full size one too and only can use that on the 20" wheels on my truck. It's too big for her car and the bike. I use the small one to clean the swing arm, calipers, and shocks too.

A lift takes what used to take a long time & a lot of bleeding and makes it quick and simple. Worth every penny!

A lift makes it much easier. I too use the daytona brushes linked earlier and they are great on both the bike and vehicles. I have never waxed them though, man that seems like alot of work. I am a big AUTOGEEK fan and will have to try the chemical guys wheel wax. I could use on the bike and vehicles. I have posted on other subjects, that I buy the Mqrs last touch detailer by the gallon from Autogeek to save money. It is great and useful on all the vehicles.
