Just wanted to check in with others to see if this is something you have noticed too or not.  On my CB Classic Edge 750 HD, I've noticed that when I use the scraper tool on the interior of the door and the frame that the door sets into, some of the flat black paint has been peeling/scraping off along with burn residue.  Is this something I should be worried about?  I figure come summer I'll re-paint it with some high-temperature flat black to avoid corrosion, but since it started happening the first time I scraped the door I figure I should check in.  Is this what the rest of you have typically seen? 

Thanks!

That's nothing to worry about.  In the spring I simply coat it with a heavy coat of NEW motor oil as I do with the firebox.  I've never painted mine, but if that's what you want to do, go for it.  Roger

Thanks Roger!  That's about what I had hoped to hear back.  I'll probably just give it the oil treatment after the season ends.
