Just noticed in a review of the XBRR that the paint scheme was referred to as the Buell Racing Paint Scheme. Is there such a thing?

I don't but I still think the XBRR is one of the coolest bikes ever made.

QUESTION: Is there such a thing?

Yes there is.

A lot of time am research went into choosing the colors and the proportions to allow the bike to be readily identified.

I had, back when it was done, the Pantone numbers and some info the the bike in the photo above is representative.

Court,

Alot of time???? Looks kinda like it was thought up in about 10 minutes. The Buell racing patches from the year prior were the same color.

I'm color blind but that baby looks good to me. We're getting ready to have the bike painted. I may change that pee green to yellow but I think the 1125R's gonna look good like that.

It is NOT a real yellow.

IF you want that exact color, you're gonna need the paint specs - it is an off-yellow... a little bit of green-ish

It can be matched. Just take a high res shot of just that color.
