Picked up the 1st 2023 RS 1200 in Matte 🍊 Triumph did a great job on the newest version.
Fit and Finish is Superb. Breaking In...But so far....Impressive Naked Bike. 🇬🇧

Do you have to use a special cleaner on this paint finish to keep it looking like new?

From what I have gathered, just a mild dish detergent like Lemon Joy. No Dawn, Waxes or Detailers etc . I think we are going to have Matte Ceramic applied which should afford lasting protection.

That's a great idea, if it actually protects the paint from scratches. I've see some matte black tanks that show every little scratch, which would drive me nuts! There are some products available to keep matte paint clean, (example: Adam's Matte Detailer) but they won't protect it from scratches. That orange is really awesome looking paint, never seen anything like it!

Thanks, looks really good in the 🌞 I ride with some peeps that have the Ducati Matte Ceramic and recommended. I didn't know Ceramic existed for Matte. lol
