Default Paint Code for my K6

Good evening all,

I've had a look through search, and I've spent about an hour trying to find my bleeding paint code. Either I'm not looking hard enough, I'm colourblind, or both.

Could someone please advise what paint code I need to get for my bike?



It's a metallic blue-y silver, it's the only way I can describe it. It's the first I've personally seen in this colour and I'm having bugger all luck trying to work out what paint to get to respray the front fairing - it's driving me nuts.

Ta,

Liam

EDIT: And it's not just plain silver, I've had it next to similar bikes in silver and this is distinctly lighter and more blue in it's colouring.

YDV Euclase Silver

good luck trying to get an exact match, even the lowers from suzuki never matched right. unless your fairing is badly scratched then i would not bother. if its just light scratches but not down to the base paint then cut it with G3 compound. you must use G3 with water.

If you want to get it done professionally then most good bodyshops have a spectrometer, take the fairing to them and they will be able to get an exact match. If you have your own spraying equipment Lechler paint company have a match for all bike colours

Brill,

Thanks all - I'm good friends with a few body shops and sprayers in the area so I'll take it to them with the code and see what they think.

The scratch isn't horrendous but I want to get it looking as-new, just a bit anal like that

Planning on getting the frame and rjms either resprayed or powdercoated back to black etc too.
