Bad day!
 
So annoyed at myself, was pushing my bike into a space at work and lost my footing and almost dropped the bike, managed to hold on (for dear life!) and come away with a scuffed fairing just left of where the seat cowl is.

It's an inch long and a quarter of an inch high. Is it repairable with touch up paint and can you get a good result? I'm so annoyed at myself but guess this had to happen sooner or later.

does anyone know the colour code for a k6 sport. It's the same as the picture above. don't have a manual to hand so can't refer to it.

any help will be gratefully received :(

Oh no!!!

When I got my bike there was a small scuff on the fairing - bought some touchup pain through my local suzuki dealer - its a nail bottle type with a brush in the lid, and a separate laquer. About 7 quid

I've applied, then cut it back and done that a few times - looks pretty good - well a lot better than before, not laquered it yet tho.

Good luck!

There's always this if you can't get to a Suzuki shop. Never used it but they've got a good reputation.

Oh yeh they can include the clear laquer for £1.95
