Platinum Boarder Posts: 1948 Re:White Walls - WHAT IS THE TRICK TO CLEANING THEM? 3 Years, 8 Months ago   I use Bleach White spray (from Wal-mart or just about anywhere) and a brass-wire brush. Makes cleaning white walls really easy. Also, having a motorcycle jack makes it even easier, so you can get each wheel off the ground and just spin them to clean.

I sprayed the product on the whitewalls the last time I washed my bike and by the time I got around to scrubbing the whitewalls they were nearly clean with no effort on my part. The spray material dissolved the dirt and grime and the whitewalls look good as new.   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/09/26 07:45 By Yakman.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #124085 Helmut (User) If you can't be young be immature Expert Boarder Posts: 421 Re:White Walls - WHAT IS THE TRICK TO CLEANING THEM? 3 Years, 8 Months ago   I use a citrus white wall cleaner from the local auto mart. The brush is a hard bristle one like you would use for cleaning vegetables also found at auto mart. I use these products so that i do not damage the tire especially the tire cleaner. I also use a lift you can get at sears specifically for motorcycles. remember to hit the rims while your there doing the white walls. If you have spoked wheels grab a couple beers too you'll be there for some time.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
