I have an 89 R100rs SE. As near as I can tell, the paint colors are Bermudablau Mica 225, and Pearlmutt Met 137. Since neither of those are available anymore from BMW, I ordered them from Color N Drive in Germany. The blue actually looks quite good. But when I ordered, I noticed that they categorize the Pearl White Metallic under beige, not under whites for 1989. That seemed odd, but it does have a slight yellowish cast to the white, so what do I know.
What I received is a yellow paint that doesn't even resemble what is on this bike. I may have seen this on a C-model sometime. Anyway, does anyone know for sure if that 137 Pearlmutt Met is the correct paint for this bike?
And, do you have any recommendations for where to get the proper pearl white touch up. I live in a very small town with one body shop that may or may not be able to color match. I understand that you probably won't get a perfect match to 30 year old paint. but this is 1/4 of the way around the color wheel from what I need.
I'll post a picture if I can figure out how.
