How about M4R, https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showpa ... Id=51_4295

BMW Motorcycle Mars Rot Met M4R Touch Up Paint, https://colorndrive.com/gb/touch-up-pai ... 69/details

If you whip off one of the panels, there should be a sticker like this to confirm the code.

Think I have enough info for my local auto paint supplier to mix some.

Curbed a wheel on my X1 getting out of the way of an ambulance in a hurry. Got the wheel repaired but needed some spray to touch up the inside that the repairer had missed. Got a perfect match from internet Uk. The topbox was sprayed by a local paint shop by the dealer, perfect match. Last resort was to contact them.

If the local paint shop was "approved" by the dealer, it'll be just fine.

I’ll buy an aerosol but use an airbrush and test on Aa panel inside.

Tried this site. Put in my bike details and it came back as only one colour .... Black.

For RS Bike Paint, looks like you need to select an R1250RT, 2019 to get the mars red option,

Thats what I have, but its the same colour for the 1200 and 1250. Used it on my top box, where I managed to scrape my newly painted box, works fine. I also had paint off them for my 2014 Quartz Blue bike and that was good as well

My local auto-paint supplier can provide an aerosol and says its M4R.
