Paint Problems?
Washing the bike the other day and felt what I thought to be bug crap under the cloth. Upon closer inspection I found what looked like a rock chip!! Turns out the clear coat is peeling!!
Next day I stopped at the dealership(Rough Rider HD, Mandan). Service manager took a look, stepped onto his office, returned in about a minute. Said he had ordered a new outer shell for the fairing! Can't beat a deal like that!
Any body else have paint issues?

I posted a thread about a month ago regarding fish eye in my tank.Went to the dealer and received a new tank. Wish I could find some peeling on my fairing as it has a nice chip in it already with only 5000mi,Bumming about that

Tonight I took a damp micro fiber towel and started gentle rubbing my hands all over her curves. Caressing every nook and cranny, insertion my fingers into forbidden areas. After 2 hours of massaging he body she is ready for a long ride.
Tomorrow I'm leading a 350 mile day trip covering 4 states.
So far my 14 limited has no clear coat peeling.

I had some issues with the clear coat but the dealer only wet sanded and buffed it out. Too bad it did almost nothing for the terrible orange peel in the paint.
