Yes, the color is called silver bead blast, part# 9860BY

I used it to touch up my 1200R cases before I traded it in and was very happy with the color match.

Any better way to paint the gray engine black?

well its better than pulling out the whole engine, that would be huge, if you notice in my sig pick theres a spot below the jugs where rain and wash water collects its starting to take on a slight rust color from my year round all weather riding, i might have to shoot tad little spot with barbeque spray like once a year to properly protect it
