help colour code needed for this R1. cant find it for love nor money and yamaha aint helping. oh yeah and as digger said the colur code isnt 81UE lol:D
I don’t know if this helps, but on my old R1 the colour code follows the model number which is located on the bar under the rear seat. It needs to be quoted along with the year of the bike.
just bought a load of paint from http://www.bikecolours.com
He’s a top bloke and i’m really happy with the quality and price of his rattle tins. He will have the code you need I’m sure 
Deep Purple Blue Metallic. Hasn’t changed since my Y2K model as far as I know. I think the code is DPBMC.
