PAINT QUESTION

[Freak]

I have contacted my dealer and wrote a note on my survey to honda about how unhappy i am with the paint, my bile is all black. My question is to the folks with red bikes, are the scratches as bad?noticable on the red? i was thinking of asking honda to replace all the black with red, i really love the blacked out look but this bike is less than 3 months old and the paint looks like crap already.

thanks

The problem I have with the red is the paint comes off on the rag every time I have applied wax plus swirls show up, I have not used a machine to buff it out.

my dealer said the rep came in and looked at the bikes and agreed theres an issue.
no resolve to the issue yet though

I can make my red look pretty good, then i touch it and have to do it again, not sure how many times the paint on the bags are gonna allow me to do it. Guess when i wear thru, Honda will know there is a problem.

How many wipes does it take to get to the bottom of the paint??

From what is sounds like, for some here that have gotten action, it was only if their paint looked like crap.

It's going to be interesting to see if Honda does anything about the paint.

Yes red has swirls as well
