I would coat it in 3M plastic (i can't recall the actual name of the product at the moment). That said...matte red could be interesting.
I never overfill my tank. I think that putting in on the center stand helps, but that's a personal preference. I only fill the tank to the base of the neck. I don't have to deal with those accordion things on the nozzle where I live, which I hear creates its own difficulties.
I don't know if I get more fuel on the center stand or on the side stand, but I stopped worrying about that about 10,000 miles ago when I realized that if refuel whenever I have to pee or every 130 miles whichever comes first.
Dang, how young are you ES? 130 miles without stopping to pee? Fuel is usually the least of my worries.
