With the bike on a padock stand use strap or some thing to hold the front brake on. Start the engine put it in 1st then use a tooth brush and kerisen on the chane/back wheal as it spins round ( only hold on to the brush at the back and lightly)
I wouldn't recommend this most of the time, and if you really must then make sure nothing can get caught, in my case hair!
Someone on this site (can't remember who) took their finger off with this trick

1. cleaning tip - buy some "wonder wheels" (car alloy cleaning liquid)! brush it on with the brush supplied, leave bout a minute then rub & wipe of with a rag. Nothing cleans wheels so good! NOTHING!

2. riding tip - position ureself in the road so that you can see as far ahead as possible while not compromising ure stability or safety.

3. servicing tip - Take it to get it serviced regurlarly!
