Side bag scuffs

Keep a bottle of Meguiar's #7 close by, most car guys call it mustard, it will take care of your agony
 
Three other options that I've used, maybe 4:

Buy the Triumph side rails for added protection. Buy and use the Triumph match touch-up paint for minor nicks. Find a local MC painter to touch up major dings (my guy did great). Just wipe if down with wax, call them "experience marks" and ignore them.
 
Here's an old yankee trick.....hey if it's good enough for titties.....

Forget the seats; use it on the wife.

I guess it would kinda go something like this.....

Come here babe, I want to rub some bag balm on ya. That already starts to present some kinda obscure image. I won't go there

Don't worry sweetie, it's a little greasy and it smells like an old cow but it will clean the crap out of your wrinkles and it has antiseptic properties that will heal your open sores......but you will be soft.

Sorry fellas I don't see this going anyway but down hill.....
 
Reminds me of this story:

My wife was standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She was not happy with what she saw and said to me,

"I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.'
I replied,

"Your eyesight's **** near perfect."

And then the fight started.......




Or this one:

I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first.

"I'll have the rump steak, rare, please."

He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?"

"Nah, she can order for herself."

And that's when the fight started.....
 
3M makes "paint protection film" that I've been eyeing to put on the tank and the panniers for just this reason, but as usual I'm screwed by the fact that I'm not in the US - they don't ship the stuff abroad.

You can pick it up on Amazon. You want the 3M Scotchgard Urethane film. You cut it to size, then use plenty of water to adjust it as you lay it on, then squeegee the excess water out from under and poof, clear smooth surface that can even be removed and new applied later. But I hear good things, they say this stuff doesn't discolor and turn yellow, etc.
