Hi STeinar, have you tried using this BMW VIN Decoder, http://bimmer.work/.

Looks like B51 could be correct.

Why not do it the other way around - paint the blue bits grey?


You'd be amazed how much faster the bike is...

Thank you everyone  ^-^

San Marino Blue is used on some BMW Cars, Code B51 cross-references to Ditzler PPG 934530,
