      According to the parts fishe the color code is 17S.

      Good luck finding a paint formula to match.

          I am not sure why you need it Trevor but I've been told "when matching existing paint they're just about useless.. Really good paint guys can go by eye". And if that's how he touched up my bike it's pretty amazing.

            There are lots of scratches and the decal on the right side of tank is screwed up by a gas leak I assume...plus chipping in the clear coat. My dad is a painter and coming here next month so I'm putting him to work. He is in Mesa and will get the paint there. I think it's harder to get the proper paint here in Canuck land.

                Decals came in today and I called my dad with the paint code. My uncle there in Mesa has a business doing parking lot and road striping/lines. He is well connected to paint wholesale companies. One of my uncle's contracts is all the 7-11's in Arizona!
