Buying one from Honda of Russelville is starting to sound like a good idea. I would think there would be no paint wear issues, and I could have the bike in any color I wanted. I've only been to Arkansas for the Inzane at Eureka Springs, and I really enjoyed riding there. Maybe they will pick me up from a local airport and I could ride back to Colorado. That beats having the wife drive me to the dealer near the house.
THey call them fly and rides and yes I have heard of others doing that. If I didn't have such a superb dealer I would have gone that route. I have also seen them pull the plastic around the dash and speakers and paint that the yellow too and it looks really cool.
