Does anyone know where I can get some touch-up paint to match the engine cases on a 2010 cbf600?

I don't know where you would obtain touch-up paint but if you intend coating entire casings then this stuff is very good.

They have a horrible habit of just throwing one, thin coat of paint on their engine casings.

Touching in might work for a stone chip or scuff but if you're seeing gaps in the paint, it's often alloy corrosion blowing through from underneath. If that's the case, it's sometimes best to whip them off, clean off any loose crap and start again.

Get it blasted and re-powdercoated at your local coaters. Just got my Startor cover done on the Gixer as it had lifted and salt had gotten underneath. Looks awesome now it's done. It'll cost you around £30
