    Hi guys,

    I own a white pearl HONDA 2010 model, and I had a little accident last year, so I had to repaint my motorcycle. It was taken directly to HONDA service. After 3 months I have started to do the annual revision preparing it for a new riding season, so I started to an-mount the plastics elements. When I wanted to an-mount the passenger handlebars I was amazed of what I have fount: 1.jpg 2.jpg
    I called them and told them my problem and they answer was that this is a problem to all of the new models and that the reason is the plastics compound. And that even if they will repaint the tail when I will attache the passenger handlebars again, it will happen the same thing.
    I also own a 2003 VFR model and it was repainted couple of times, I an-mounted the handlebars to see if it has the same problem and it did not.
    I have also notice that paint started to brake at knee side : 7.jpg
    So my question to you guys is: Do you have the same problem, when mounting the passenger handlebars ?

    Thank you very much for reading this post.
