Update:
After week or so, result was not that good. I do not know how...but most of scratches came back. No, it wasn't from driving. I did buff again at my buddy's shop and it looks ok now.
Anyway things that i wanted to update, since i said "place did great job"...i take that back.

You guys are right. I think they bascially did just to cover up the scratches, not removing it. That is why it slowly came back after rain and hand wash by me...blah. Top of that I was stupid that paid cash and throw the receipt away lol...oh well I guess I learn something about auto detail.

Does anyone have any connections in search engine optimization? I am looking to get some serious work done to my website, March was an amazing month but April has been a BIG downer so far, and I am trying to find a way to stabilize this.
If anyone has any contacts in Web Design, or Search Engine Optimization and wants to start getting their name our there, please point them in my direction.

I sent one of my buddies info the Chef-j for detailing so I guess ill put his info up for everyone else. If you tell him Corbin with the blue 370 sent you he will give you a good deal. He is really reasonable, and can do anything.. even does a stellar job on engine bays. Here is his link. His name is Ray and he is a super nice guy.. will even show you how to wash and wax yourself for future reference.

Black's the hardest to keep up with..hope the wash is no less then 2 bucket method at the very lease. Good luck maintaining black is all i gotta say! It's tough work...but when done right there's nothing like it.

That being said I feel compelled to write...........
Pay attention big time during the class room section of the course.........if you have a good instructor he will talk about motorcycles "stopping distance" in comparison to a car
and
he will talk about motorcycle T-bone accidents when cars pull out in front of bikes on the road - which is related to motorcycle stopping distance......
Also, ensure he talks to you about the motorcycles main advantage over cars - power and quick speed! - which "CAN" be used to get you out of a near accident situation.....
I owned two Yamaha 600cc class sport bikes and had a great time riding/owning them, but I myself have escaped eminent death in 3 instances while owning those bikes on the road!.........
Pay attention and understand the bikes physical capabilities.....
Ride safe....
