SOURCE: What is 2001 yamaha yzf 426 paint code

Frame color:
Deep Purplish Blue Metallic C (DPBMC)
This is Yamaha's color designation which is a dead end since they don't sell paint. Try Colorrite.com as they specialize in motorcycle oem match paint. This color is a 2-step process and requires the correct color primer to come out right. Color rite can fix you up with the proper coatings.
