Hi

Sorry, can't help on the paint, but I do feel for you, mine is new and black.
You will need the paint code. Your dealer should know this, and I would be
interested in this info.

As to the oil.
The info I have is, you do not have to use the Big T brand, but it must be of the
same spec and quality.
I will be using the Big T brand and changing it every 3000 miles.
Expensive, I know, but the bike was not cheap and I do want to use what is
recommended.

good luck
