I do not intend to get into any paint issues/debates on the F6B as I had mine custom painted at pick-up because my wife and I did not like the Honda red or the black...But, after viewing many posts on this "so-called paint problem", and not wanting to do the best with what you have, just SELL the damn thing and stop complaining about something that upsets you all the time...Paint your bike or live with it and enjoy the greatness of this fine bike....Honda is not going to do anything about a few that complain about an issue they do not see as a problem...C'mon guys this paint issue is becoming worse than all the old oil threads!!
