Good work. 

Which scheme is magma rot? That doesn't sound appealing. Hope it isn't the fastest one (yellow/black/silver).

Nice one, thanks Costas.

Just been browsing the RealOEM parts catalogue (slow day at Phmode Towers  ) and noticed for the first time that in the Bodywork section, if you click on the painted parts for your colour scheme, (which I would never do unless I was looking for new bodywork  ) the paint codes for each scheme are given at the head of the parts listing below the exploded diagram of the parts.

I'm looking to bring Matt's Motorsport panels round, before sticking them away, and looked at RealOEM as Brian suggested (and Costas confirmed):
https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/partgrp?id=0508-EUR-09-2015-K40-BMW-K_1300_S_0508,0509_&mg=51

However, there are no paintcodes for K1300S Motorsport panels, i.e. 4 colours: black, white, red, blue.
I guess the white is:
- 300 ALPINE-WHITE

But for black there are two choices (in the other 3-colour options):
- NACHT-SCWARZ 103, or
- SAPHIR-SCWARTZ METALLIC 475 (but the Motorsport black isn't metallic as far as I can tell)

And the red and blue? Maybe:
- M25 LUPIN-BLAU MET for blue?
- M36 RACING-RED for red?

Does anyone know, please?

Hmm, that black is 'SAPHIR-SCHWARZ METALLIC 475'?
I don't remember my red/black bike being metallic.

The Mudguard (fender) is metallic black; the fairing side panels are solid black as far as I can tell under the mud.

Ah! You're spot on as ever, Andy. RealOEM says:
- Front wheel fender SAPHIRE-BLACK
- Trim piece, left front RED-BLACK

Your mudguard must be 'SAPHIR-SCHWARZ METALLIC 475' so I guess the lower part of the panel is plain 'NACHT-SCWARZ 103'.

RealOEM says various other K1300s have metallic black on their panels though. Why so complicated, and who's looking down there anyway?

Couldn't see a code for mud, though.

You can't specifically order that. It's provided directly in the colour approiate to where you ride.

Hence my dark black on black bike having a lovely reddish, orangish tinge about its nether regions. If the red Herefs soil can make the cows red, it is easy to see how it colours bikes and cars.
