HI all,
I need some touch up paint for the lower right fairing. My recent 2200km trip had about 160-180km of leave and branch strewn dirt. Obviously the fairing doesn't like being hit by branches and has a few scratches - which unfortunately have taken the paint off and left the white plastic showing.

I'd like to get some nail polish or touch up paint to repair the damage.

Does anyone know if it's available from the dealers or the "right" colour of nail polish to use?

Russ

It's available from the dealer. Mine cost $15 US. It is two containers, one the colored paint and the other, the clear lacquer. Haven't used it yet - just picked up the bike yesterday - but I asked the dealer to provide some for me because I knew I would need it with the chippy roads in Pennsylvania, USA!

Yup get used to the water based paint chipping away! Before you damage it, you might want to consider the clear bra. My fairings and fender were so bad I repainted them with Imron.
