Lots of threads here on this stuff. I like it alot. Got mine from a Yamaha dealer in TX via mail order because it was the least expensive. Do a Google search for Glare or Honda Glare. You'll find it cheaper with the Honda label. (You can cover the label with tape so your friends won't know you used a Honda product.)
I went through the whole process with my bike over a year ago. It took me six hours to apply all the products in all the steps.
The bike still looks like new and all I have done is wash and dry it since. I have not done any polishing since the day I applied the glare products.
It is alot of work to apply it right the first time, but well worth it. It seems expensive, but only because you have enough left over to do another 100 bikes or so when you are finished.
Rochkes, when you say you "went through the whole process," which Glare products did you use? I was thinking of just trying the Glare Professional Polish. If my bike is already very clean, and the paint is in excellent condition without any scratches or swirls, do I still need to use other Glare products to get the results they advertise?

No, in that case the Glare Pro Polish alone should be fine.
