5 pages of this thread & still no good info on which type of snake is best for snake oil.  I will check back later.

And all this time I thought it was about what kind of snake oil was best for your snake!  None of mine squeaked at all..

Ok.  Like the new bearings that don't need grease.

Remember to follow the instructions exactly for the 1st application.  That makes all the difference.  From then on......it's a piece of cake......just have to remember the sunglasses to deal with the 'glare'.  :coolblue: har!  :drink: spyder

Talked to a Glare Tech.  He tells me to wash the bike down with Dawn Dishwashing liquid to remove all of the wax/polish before applying.  Is this follow what everyone else has done?  He says about a capful of Dawn to a Gal of water.

Interesting topic... and as suspected, no definitive answer... lol

I gotta figure out something, now that I'm a HD guy... but being a Goldwing guy didn't break me of my aversion to bike washing, and they're a pretty tough crowd when it comes to cleaning more than riding.  :coolblue: I washed my wing every 6 months or so, whether it needed it or not (riding 25K miles a year).

Hell, I spent $31K on a bike, I outghta just hire someone to wash the damn thing, since I'm made of money.  :huepfenjump3:

Really hard to find someone that will do it the way you want it done.  For any price.  :-[ spyder

Used the Glare for the first time this weekend.  Stripped the wax off with a Dawn wash first.  The first step is a lot of work... rub rub rub!  I'm really impressed with the finish!  I thought it was hard to get good pics of this color (black diamond / fire quartz) now it is impossible.  Mirror quality shine.  The chrome is blinding.  Hope it holds up as well as it shines.

Well, I'm a believer in how well it holds up.....just finished over a couple of thousand miles ride and the bugs just wipe right off the fairing.  That's worth the effort/expense to me.  :) har!  :drink: spyder
