What is the easiest way to clean rear wheel on 2015 RTS?

What is the easiest way you have found to clean up the rear wheel? My hand doesn't fit very well, due to the tight spaces.

Power washer after spraying with most cleaners does wonders

If only it were that easy. That's like pounding your head on a brick wall!

Spray Simple green cleaner let it sit for 5 minutes or so, use a toilet brush to scrub , then wrap same in an old rag, rub some more , rinse with hose, ..... I find if I leave the Spyder in neutral I can just move it by hand a bit at a time to get the entire wheel done ......Good Luck ........Mike

Remove wheel, scrub. Rinse, install. Most thorough, gets it cleanest. 1 hour.
next easiest, get a brush for wheels; looks like a Christmas tree. Jack up bike, scrub, turning wheel by hand. Bike in neutral, brake off, front wheels chocked. You lay beside it, bucket of soapy water , brush and hose. About 20 min per side.
Several spray on hose off products out there. S100, wheel magic, merlins blood, armor all wheel cleaner. I've tried most of them, and they are ok if you don't look closely. If you do, you'll spend an hour detailing afterwards, and wish you would have just taken the thing off to begin with!! All depend on how clean is clean. Here, in 100 degrees, I do more quickies and try to keep after it. Once it cools off, deep cleaning resumes!!

I've tried that but I don't have enough hands
Cause one hand always has a beer in it

A brush with handle like toilet bowl cleaner will help you reach the hard place. Good luck and have fun.

Not recommended. Use the frame to jack up

My proctologist recommended the same brush
