With "YAMAHA" on the fuel tank it must be a 2001 or 2002, thus it's DPBMC.

Galaxy Blue came out in 2004. And those have a black frame and a pitchfork logo on the tank.

Cheers,
Sascha

This is Galaxy blue.


Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad

I have a recollection that the paint code is printed on a sticker that's stuck to the frame somewhere under the seat. You might get more luck with your enquire if you post in the 1000 section.

Defo DPBMC same as mine :)
Got a can from Autopaint in Farnworth near Bolton a few years ago for my side panels, perfect match about a tenner.
