What has anyone found that will clean the grime off the hard to reach areas of the wheels?

And spray on wheel cleaner (if they arent polished)

I keep a good coat of wax on mine.
 
its called acrosol its a adhesive claener found in body shops/dealerships (auto ) just wipe and go it drys within seconds . it all i use for the wheels
 
I use WD-40, spray it on a rag and wipe them down..... be sure to keep it off your rotors!!!!!!!!!!

Simple Green works pretty well, good coat of wax will help things from stickin.
 
+1 on the WD40! Get a good chain lube/Wax etc. I do mine rite after a ride so chain is warm. Give it time to dry for less sling off. A center stand sure would be handy for this.

I use this stuff called Goop. It's a hand cleaner. Put some on the rag, and it wipes right off. I use it on the sprockets too. And on the frame, and the undertail... and the....

Keep it simple and use Simple Green. Its a good degreaser and can be used on just about anything (clothes,household,bike, car) and its non toxic.
 
I went with a lube/cleaner I had in house. Soap and water did not work ..I let it get too grimmy. i will be better in the future.
 
Whadya think these suckers are like to clean? Nothing but a rag some honda polish (yes I have 2 cases) and time. It takes me about 1/2 hour per rim. Thats 1hr for the wheels and about an hour for the rest of the bike. It gets cleaned after EVERY ride.

Busted knuckles and man hands included.
