I've seen the color-coded bolts on my Triumph, as well. Not sure why they do it, but I'm not a Brit engine tuner.
As for the emblems, RAT used to send out annual patches, pins and stickers. All are triangular, with the RAT rat on it, the Triumph logo and the year. The stickers are simply an adhesive (I could not get mine to stick to my helmet).
As for the change in color, welcome to Brit bikes. My Bonnie had gorgeous blue pipes, and my Tiger has gold. I personally like it. I believe there are mods to prevent the pipes from turning, but to restore that 'chromed' look, you'll need to buy all new pipes. I say why fight it? Embrace your English nature...
