Default black bike owners...how do you

How do you care for the paint to prevent the small scratches in the clear from appearing that I have seen on older bikes? I am trying to decide between black or red.

Thanks
Dave

Do the Black guys do it different than the White guys? I know they dance a whole lot better than us, and alledgely are better proportioned in certain areas, but didn't know they had superior talents in maintaining the appearance of a Harley. This forum is amazing, you learn something new every day!!!

I wax my bike beforeI leave and whenI come back. That works fine for me, no swirl marks are visible. Ohand remember, if it ain't Black take it Back!!!
