[QUOTE="Makuna, post: 831975, member: 9768"] Could the blue be a primer? There might be a simiple answer. Yamaha isn't very good at mixing paint? I had a Yamaha Majesty (silver). I got it new, put a few scratches on it, but when I went to get it repaired the stock paint codes didn't match. Mine was a very light silver while the stock was darker, almost bronze. Compared it to another and yes mine didn't match it. In the end they could try to match it but felt they would need to paint the whole thing. I decided the scratches weren't that bad. The shop explained to me that they had seen it before on lower production vechicles. The paint being used changed over the months the vehicale were manufactured due to small batches with poor care taken to the mixing. [/QUOTE]
