If you use your bike over a period of time some small somethingh is going to happen to it sooner or later and it does hurt you inside.Takes me awhile to get over stuff like that to.I have done the touch up paint and 2000 grit trick my self and it works well.

What Joe said is the best way to get the scratches out, you just have to be careful to rub thru. You really need a buffer for the other steps to get a hight gloss and take the sanding scratches out. Dont feel bad, I always tell the kids put my tools away and everything else you use!! NIce so I leave the ladder out after useing it, leaned it against the garbage can. Yep should have put it away, but was gonna use it later. So the compressor turns on the Pitbull gets scared, bumps in the the garbage can and in slow motion, I watched the ladder full towards my bike......as I'm diving for the ladder in slooow motion I watch it heading for my shinny blk fairing. Missed and hit the front fender, now I have two small dents, no paint broken and it bugs the hell out of me

Ugh! What is it with wives and gfs??? My wife backed into my bike with our car earlier this year and dented in the rear fender lip. The paint wasn't broken (cover was over the bike, luckily), but I took it to a number of body shops (including H-D) and all said it couldn't be done without a repaint. "Can't ya just gently pull it out?", I asked all of them. Nope, they all replied, it'll crack the paint. I finally came upon one guy who with my permission pulled out a hammer and with the handle levered against the tire, ever so slowly pulled out the dent. Took 30 seconds and didn't crack the paint, like every other place told me it would. You can still see it when the sun hits it just right, but it's a non-issue to me, now.
I'm with everyone else, who just says polish it out and move on. It gives your bike character. In the next 6 years, your bike will have gathered hundreds of those scratches. It just comes from regular use.
