    Does anyone know or know how to get a paint code for my blade so I can get some paint the same colour?

    Its a 2010 black and white one, its the white I need, I believe its called pearl sunbeam white?

    That's great thank you, did not realise it was so expensive!
    How much paint would I need for spraying top + bottom fairings, tank cover, seat unit and front fender?

    Sorry have no idea about amount needed. I know I used pretty much a whole can on rear cowl. Mind you that was a complete change of colour.

    Call the guys at RS BikePaint, they seem to have a good idea how much paint is needed.
    I have just ordered 250ml for my tank cover, and been advised 'it would be plenty', so for all the elements you have listed I guess you need at least 750ml of paint, another 750ml of base and 1000ml of lacquer... but it is just my guess. Call the RS guys to confirm!
