checking under the tank, will it have the correct code then?

should do.............. unless the bike has been painted,

ok, will get the tank off later in the week and check. thanks.

Why all the fuss, just paint it black



(Awaits someone to edit black)

black!!?? maybe get the wheels done black, but not the hugger. not my cup of tea. my neighbour suggested black aswell though...

still trying to get to the bottom of this.

a 2000 bike should be darker yellow

No the bike

not a fan of black, shows up dirt, marks etc. although, if thats your bike in your avatar, the gold wheels look good with the black paintwork. not as good as black wheels against yellow paintwork though. whatever yellow mines painted that is!!

^^^ Bloomin' 'eck....

How lazy am i!! Well, got a seat cowl and undertray recently so have begun priming and wet flatting these. Lifted the tank up and my paint code is Y9H Pearl Lively Yellow. Just need to pay a visit to my local paint suppliers to get some paint mixed in areosol to finish of my new parts. Will post up pics when done.

Silver wheels mean lemon yellow, but on a W plate I wouldn't be surprised if the tank and panels have been replaced as this colour wasn't released in time to be on a W reg!

Possible late registered bike??!! I have seen some sv's with black wheels. Are these later curvys then?
