    82 Kat paint

    Finally getting arounf to doing something with my Kat, body work is off to the painters.

    From what I found searching the factory silver color used for the body work is either 737 Stardust Silver Metallic or Bright Silver metallic. Anyone know for sure? Anyone got a PPG or house of color or what ever paint code that matches?

    Any recommendations on a silver powder coat that matches the paint on the frame?

    One last question, Anyone know what that blue color is they used for the tail piece?

    I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.

      That helps a bit. So for the US 82 1k kat the body work is Bright silver.

      Now i just need the frame and the tail.
