Matte paint for Empulse
« on: October 19, 2011, 02:30:27 PM »
Anyone else interested in seeing the Empulse with Matte options similar to what Kawasaki is offering on the ninja, or Ducati with the EVO 848? I would LOVE to get mine in matte black or red! Hopefully Brammo is listening.

You can keep your matte paint. I like to polish shinny stuff. You ever try to polish matte paint? Not a good result.   ::)

Besides bugs are tough to remove from matte surfaces.   :o

Yeah, but if you don't like polishing shiny things, well then Matte is pretty sweet.

My MP3-500 is black matte and I rarely even wash her (3 years, 14k miles and
I've washed her maybe 5 times...now my smaller, shiny scooter gets washed WAY more, and she doesn't go off road nearly as much as my 500)

Sure you cant polish it, by that kinda defeats the purpose. Brammo should at least offer black in matte, but that's just me. Looks awesome on Gavin's ride.
