Hi guys. New to to the site/forum as of this morning. Just purchased a 2005 R1, storm grey and Matt blue (I think) but would like to know the colour codes as there is just a little too many stone chips for my liking.
Previously owned the model before on a 2002 plate. But just returned to Yamaha after owning ducatis..... Hope I didn't just swear!
Anyway, I'm from South Wales, 30 yrs old, nice to be here.. :D

Welcome in Geriant ;)



The paint codes used by Yamaha are unique. The codes used by automotive paint suppliers are not relevant. As such, most automotive paint suppliers will not be able to recognise the Yamaha codes. Visit http://www.standox.com.au" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (moto colour) - they have colour matches for most Yamaha models available through their approved suppliers listed on their site.


Or have a look here
