RE: SPRAY PAINT
Yes they sell paint in, spray cans, touch up bottles, and in pint and quart also but its almost always special order at the dealer. It will do a good job on small jobs, its a base coat color then if you wet sand and clear coat it the piece will look pretty good. I did it to a set of fillers that go between bags and fender and it looked very good. I would not try and do tank or other big parts. Pay to have those sprayed by a pro.

Yes they do sell thier paints in rattle cans. Around $20 for a 12oz can.
Vivid Black:PartNumber: 98606DH
Clear Top Coat: Part Number: 98606EK
Those two are pretty standard colors, so they should be "Stock" items and not special order.
WhenI did my inner fairing and helmets, They had those two on the shelf and I had to order Yellow Pearl. The ordered paint took a week.
Hmmm, this was shot with rattle cans.

I used Harley's vivid black out of a spray can to paint a pair of saddle bag spoiler lights. I chased them with a clear coat and made sure it was a relatively dust free environment. They turned out nice. Sorry no pictures...

Is your bike Dragonfly Green the 06 custom spring color? If so Harley told me they only sell the touchup paint for it. I wanted to paint my inner fairing like yours, because it sure looks good. Let me know how you did it please, drop me a line.
Thanks
