When I bought my 2022 S2S with the Satin/Matte finish, I was told to just wash it, it didn't need waxing...
But I also had it Simonized, how long that lasts we shall see?
Here is something I found on-line about taking care of the finish...

I have the same Spyder model, (a 2023 F3 LTD Special Series Mineral Blue Satin)
I am using Chemical Guys Meticulous Matte for Satin-Matte Finish Auto-Wash. Its highlighted features are Lubricating Agents, Surface Cleaning, Superior Surface cleanser, PH-Balanced, Streak Free, Formula Safe for OEM, Vinyl, and Matte painted surfaces.

Thank you all.
The only chemical I used on my RTL Matte finish was H2O. I never let a dirty or bug covered bike sit overnight. It got cleaned after each ride, even when on the road before the cover was put on for the night. Micro-fiber rags and a good squirt bottle of H2O were my best friends. And...... The rags can be rinsed out and squirt bottle filled for free at all motels!
Thanks. I do carry Micro Fibre towels with me at all times. Thanks for your input. Good suggestion.
Lamonster has a matte polish that works for me!
I'm using this on my Matte Finish.

Gonna give this Chemical Guys product a try. I like the fact that it has UV protectors in it..

While my Spyder is not a matte finish I have found bug removal window cleaner for car windshields works great for getting off the bugs. I keep a spray bottle on the Spyder always. I have used it on the windshield and so far so good. No wax in it.
