Probably as soon as I get this bike exactly the way I want it I'll trade it in lol.
    With all that torque and power 6 speed is needed for better gas mileage !

    If the trade is just for paint - then no. I will keep mine. If you throw in cruise control too - I'm starting to give it a serious look. Throw in ABS for and keep the price within 1k of the current deluxe and I'll be a serious buyer. I don't even mind the yellow and black!

    I think my paint is "OK" but a bad factory paint job would be a great excuse to get a custom paint job and less $ than you would lose on the trade. Also I don't want ABS and my throttlemiester is good enough for me. Cruise and ABS is just a liability when you get over 100,000 miles on your bike.

    No paint issues here. The bike runs beautifully, no need to change.

    Very interesting responses so far. I like it.

    Thermal Reactive Paint

    I have been thinking about trying a thermal reactive paint.

    Nope I will just get a custom paint job if and when it needs it. So far no problems with the paint. No more than any other new bike or car ; you always notice every little thing when they are new.

    I'll stay

    I usually hold on to my vehicles for a long time. The paint doesn't look too bad. Also after putting a couple grand into little do-dads and Gizmos, it's just about perfect for me. The only thing left is a super comfortable seat.
    My paint after 7000 miles is not all that bad.
