I need some advice. I've got this beautiful 2019 that I can't wait to ride to work. The problem is that I work at a rock quarry and the dust is ridiculous. I don't even bother washing my beater car because it'll be covered in dust the next day.
I'm thinking about ways I can protect the bike and still enjoy riding it to work. I'm learning more about 3M Paint Protection Film and have thought about having it added in key areas of the bike. I've also researched paint ceramic coating and am actually thinking about having this done in addition to the film.
My worry is that the film installer noted that if the film has to be removed due to damage or simply from end of life, that it'll surely pull off the factory graphics (worried specifically about the main side fairings).
I'm also worried that over time the paint under film will weather slower than the rest of the bike. So if I remove it after a few years, that the paint will look two tone.
I'm planning on getting a nice GEZA half cover but worry that the cover will scratch the paint with all the dust in the air. I'm at a stand still because I want to keep it nice but also bought it to ride...
I've thought about a full OEM Suzuki cover but don't think it'll fit with an 8" stretched swingarm and 240 rear.
