Howdy, I'm looking for the paint codes or formula for the color used on the orange tubers with purple frames. I'd like to paint my plastics and that would be an awesome color.

Also, does anyone have the procedure to remove the raised Buell letters on the airbox cover without deforming it via heatgun?

Check the KV, all the paint codes are there.
Also, any of the old Sikkens codes are no longer valid. They reformulated their paints in 1999 and there is no crossing from old to new.

I pulled my raised letters off. Get a very sharp blade and carefully slide it just under the corner of a letter. They will peal off nicely.
