Anybody know the name of the color used on the swingarm, or better yet the paint code? Just has a minor mishap with a paddock stand and scatched my swingarm a bit. I'm happy I caught the bike before it fell over completely but it left a little scrape. It should disappear with the proper (color) touch up paint.
Bike is a 23' in Raven Black and it was flawless before this.
Lesson learned: use spools! I dont have any yet and was relying on the "pads" on the stand, which has worked numerous times in the past but alas, it failed me today.

May have to contact dealer for paint code if nobody chimes in.

Try your local hobby shop that sells plastic model kits. Typically they will have a large rack of hobby paints in many colors/shades and gloss levels. These paints can be applied by brush or air brush.

No luck with the Yamaha dealer (I work there) they only found what I already did, just body colors. I did not consider the hobby shops (good idea), only an auto paint supply. Thinking the paint supply, could possibly scan and match the paint. Until I figure it out, theres an Alpinestars sticker covering it and its mostly behind the silencer.
One day I'll actually go and take some pictures and post them here.
Thank you for the suggestions.
