Just found a pic of my dads on it's own, don't be fooled by the suzuki advert. The colour is wierd, in certain light it looks like that blue but in others it looks abit naff!!! Still nice though, but if your looking for the proper blue then this will let you down!!! My dad has only just got used to it!!

see, i'm not sure that my bike looks *that* light in the sun - rich could you do me a favour, get your dad to check his service booklet, inside cover, it should have the colour listed in there, i swear i'm going mad but that can't be the same as mine

Honestly it's the napoleon blue, my dad had the bike shop roaming the country for the Grand Candy one but thats a few years old. He was so unsure about the napoleon blue he made them knock more money off and give him that exhaust!! It worked!!

The book states Napoleon Blue!!!

Heres a pic of mine on a very very sunny day and it looks considerably different again to the one qouted below, in even slightly cloudy or darker day it looks almost identical to the press photos. Maybe the sprayer at suzuki has been on the **** and makes the mixtures different everytime mine is defo very dark compared to alot i have seen.
