Yes my riding friends say the same thing.Bike and matte paint looks cool but they say fingerprints from oil in the fingers gets on the matte finish and they are starting to see problems where they are always cleaning these areas


The number one killer is BIRD CRAP.They ride and we park somewhere and a bird does his/her business and it gets on the matte finish and it dries.Thats where they see spots also is where they had to clean up after a bird
