Mate, not sure I can help with the marks, but be as anal as you like about anything you like.

And, if you want to be anal about a motorcycle, this one's a pretty good one to be anal about.

Now, to the seat ... some form of vinyl restorer?

Simple fix:

Sit on it and ride. That way you will:
a) won't be able to see the mark
b) enjoy the ride

This is supposed to work, might be worth a try, or at least a watch.

Popgun, that video is pure genius. Particularly when you start it here, https://youtu.be/HpCDl01HECQ?t=13

ROFL

I didn't post THAT link as where I found it some people though it was a scam link. To avoid that here, I posted the one I did.

I can't take credit for much though. Google is my friend!
