Hi there mine is the same colour. My dealer told me the code was 00FE
Had a look at RS Bike paints and the smallest touch up size 25ml x3 work out just over £35 once you add tax and shipping.
I have some touching up needed to the lower front frame and the pillion footrest hangars.Is it wrong that was thinking a tin of red Hammerite will maybe just do rightly lol.

Try a paint mixing specialist - you usually find them on trading estates hidden away in a unit down some cul-de-sac.
Often, some have scanners and can match your paint - or if not can work to a colour match to get as close a mix as they can.
Probably cheaper - and you'll end up with 0.5L or more to play with ;D

after being quoted £150 to get the side panel and mud guard painted I politely told the chap to abscond well not in they words lol he also told me the paint code was wrong so huggyg71 your code may just be right .
