Not sure. It is a powder coat finish as supplied on the frame and wheels. The OEM powder coat supplier is www.classiccoatings.com. A quick google of the BadWeB for "paint code nuke blue" turned up the following... http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show.cgi?tpc=3842&post=368943#POST 368943 RE: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show.cgi?tpc=17143&post=424438#POS T424438 You might ask Wyckedflesh if he was ever able to obtain a matching paint code. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show.cgi?tpc=4062&post=137385#POST 137385 Good luck and please let us know if you find a paint code to match the nuke blue. |

Although there is touch up paint on Ebay, I've yet to see Nuclear Blue offered. |

What's offered on Ebay is a 3 stage paint kit. It sounds like the "tri-coat" process that was described in by Motor Cycle Paint Supply used to recreate the color. |

There is a factory 3-part touch up kit available through your local Buell dealer or board sponsor. That also applies to the other frame colors as well, but they are 2-part. |

Timbo, do you still have that nuc-blue S1? That was my favorite lightning! I ran across one here in Lake City for sale a few years back but didn't have the funds at the time. Ken |
