When the weather is more sensible and i give the bike a good clean i use black Colour Magic Liquid Turtle Wax on the wheels, it puts a bit of life back into them.

Ha ha :lol
Pointless in this bloody weather though, plus it's not far away from salting the roads time as well.

Not sure where you've been riding, but the A316, M3 etc. has been covered with salt for the past two weeks. At least yesterday's heavy rain has cleared the horrible stuff away for the moment.
Having just had new tyres and learnt that the inner surface of the rims is badly corroded, I'd recommend application of Turtle Wax (or whatever) as deep towards the bead as you can get it. I'm going to have to get hold of some replacement wheels, or be off the road while mine are refurbished.

No, not noticed any salt at all on the roads around my way at all yet.
What i have noticed is since i fitted the front fenda extenda i can really hear any dirt picked up by the tyre that hits it, so i'd imagine that salt will make a right old racket!
Weather's meant to be very lively tomorrow by the way. :thumbdown
