Well, like the title says, I got my first rock chip. Just over 6 weeks at 1900ish miles. Got it on the commute to or from work, knew it was coming since I drive on the interstate so much. Now my bike has personal character I guess.

Bummer. I'm sure it will happen to us all sooner or later.

That's no minor nick. What if that had smacked you in the face shield or nailed you in the chest?

I didn't hear it hit, but its all the way down past the paint. I am planning some of the clear stuff on the tank front as well as just in front of the seat, maybe I'll get a black tank....wonder what that would cost. Also, those are the spare keys to both bikes, I keep them in the garage to move the bikes in and such, I don't drive around like that lol.

That sucks - Going down tomorrow to have mine covered with the XPEL film. Will let you all know how it goes.
Ryan at http://www.autopaintguard.com/ did my Scion FR-S and you can't even tell it is on the hood...Gonna see what he can do with the CB tank. |
