Paint Code

[TracyMurphy]

I am trying to locate the paint code on my 2002 1150RT to order the correct color touch up paint. The one I have does not match.

Thanks

There should be a sticker under the seat with the paint codes. The color can be ordered from automotive paint dealers that use Dupont products. I checked the paint charts for cars(the dealers do not have bike charts) and found BMW cars that use the same paint codes. MY Biaritz Blu 2004RT was an easy match!

Tracy - Have you checked colorrite.com? (I think the underseat stickers do not tell the color cole - instead they're for the combination of colors, e.g., blue with silver trim, blue with black trim, etc.).

Sometimes a code is written on the inside of fairing piece.

Thanks for the replies. I never did find the sticker, but took the easy way out and called a local dealer. They got it off the VIN. I have the correct BMW paint pen but the match leaves a little to be desired.

That's a pretty cool website, great info

I agree, good site. I could not tell the difference between

Silver (Metallic)456

and

Titan Silver (Metallic)354

so called the dealer.

Thanks again.
