Default Sanding Motorcycle Wheels

I am going to start sanding the wheels on my Honda F4i, but don't know the best way to go about. I know what grit to use and what to work up to, but do you sand it by hand? I have a lot of air tools and sanders but can't think of anything that would work in such a confined area.

JNizzle,

Try flap wheels or greaseless. You can use both on a electric drill motor!

Some of the places on the rims might need the old fashion way but most of it you do with a die grinder and your choice of wheels...
