I used Nanolex matte stuff on mine a few years back. There are loads more products on the market now for matte finishes. A lot of spray waxes are also suitable, AG Aqua Wax is, for example. Ultimately it also depends on when you intend on using the bike really ie mostly fair weather or all weathers.
I love Bilt Hamber Auto Wash - its the only thing I really use.
My son has a Suzuki GSX125 in satin black and we are happy using the Bilt Hamber shampoo, or Autoglym Pure Shampoo (make sure shampoo has no conditioners in it)
I've been pretty happy using Meguairs Last Touch, mixed 50:50 with water as a Quick Detailer - it doesn't ruin the satin finish, and leaves the paint looking and feeling good.
Autoglym Rapid Aqua Wax is a good product to use and is recommended by Autoglym for matt finishes.
I use this on my black Honda CR-V and it leaves a nice protective finish
Been a few months since we bought the semi-gloss/matte finish Suzuki and I said earlier in the thread I was going to buy some Muc-off Matt Finish Detailer
I did, back in early April and we've detailed the bike a few times with it.
Its very good.
You don't need to use much (otherwise you're wiping it away for ages)
When you wash the bike it beads relentlessly, giving the impression there is some good protection laid down on it.
There's loads left, and I'm really happy with it.
Worth a try.
