The wheels with the five spokes are delivered by Side Bike, the sidecar builder
in France.
They are for motorcars, I don't know the name of the factory (look at
John,
Where did you guys get your wheels from? I realize the sidecar sizes are no
good to me but, I'd love to get a set of lightweight good looking wheels for
the GTS. As far as I know nothing is available. The front wheel is IMO the
worst design element of the GTS. Too swoopy looking. It's not
MAAS. The best cleaner/polish/protectant available. I use MAAS probably
twice a year and at the end of any long rides I wipe the wheels down with
CANDO.

I just finished reading the February 2000 MotorCyclist magazine. In
that issue there is an article on "The idiot's guide to detailing". One
of the detailers contacted uses semichrome applied with fingers or a
dremel tool. In the same article they say semichrome is no longer
available, and that
One thing I have been thinking.. I wonder how well an electric
toothbrush will work in those hard to reach areas? I think it might be
really nice in some tight spots. I have used a flexible shaft dremel for
some polishing in the past and it worked well.

I prefer CANDO to S100. Motorcycle Consumer News did an article a while
back about detailing products and I think Maas and Cando both got very
high markings. If memory serves (rarely happens) Cando was the most
economical and the most

You're a good nephew. Now go ask your uncle who scammed a free MCN
subscription what issue the article was in!
I don't know about others but my front wheel's finish was gouged up beyond
polishing. Seems that by hanging out in the wind unprotected it gets
chipped and nicked by rocks and debris (maybe a 3rd world road thing). I

this list?) Thx.

Has anyone polished their wheels ... or found a product that keeps
em looking good without buffing em all the time? I cleaned mine up
about 3 months ago with some metal polish (semichrome maybe) and they
look terrible already. What's the hot set up here?
