Can't confirm this info - but a dealer will.

The 2008MY 1125R frame/wheel colour is called Diamond blue.

spray can - M0310.1AMYCR

touch up - M0300.1AMYCR

in my experience, you will be able to tell a difference between the spray can paint Buell makes for the '08 and the factory powder coat. The spray can seems a little darker. It is hard to tell from a distance, especially with as many angles as this bike has.... the shadows help to decrease the visible difference, but it won't be the exact color match.

The dealer put a scratch in my swingarm on the second warranty repair. The bike had about 200 miles on it at that time and they gave me a brush touch up can and it is a terrible match. Looked much darker than the blue. It is the factory paint, they had to order it in. Hope you have better luck than me.

Problem with touching up paint is always getting a match - not withstanding shade differences in paint batches, wind, sun, rain etc will have an effect on your original paintwork.

the '08 blue spray can paint I got from buell has a BUELL label that reads:

M0310.1AMYCR
Diamond Blue
Frame & Wheel Paint

Under the can, there's some print that reads:

10/13/08
EFA
V0C-88% MIR-1.50

DOT 2Q M5702


Does that help you at all? There isn't much there that identifies the paint...

Well finally got the touch up paint and it covered nice. It is a little darker than the powder coat. I'm happy with it ,the kit came with 2 touch up bottles. I will post pics.

Anyone have any advice on how to best feather in the edges when touching up the powdercoat?
I tried polishing out some light scuffs and it shined up my matte finish. Any suggestions for clearing up light scratches?
