Paint Code For Red Boxeye
« on: 15 April 2019, 09:15:36 pm »
Does anyone know the paint code for the solid red color of the Boxeye? I know the candy metallic colour is VRC1 or Vivid Red Cocktail 1, and the burgundy red is VRC7 or Vivid Red Cocktail 7 but I cant see the code for a solid red colour. Anyone know?
Thanks in advance.

My 1998 Red 600 has the code Vivid Red Cocktail 1. This is the solid Red I presume you mean, not the more metallic red of the 1999 model which I believe is Vivid Red Cocktail 7. I think you might have them mixed up.

I know it’s the right code because I bought a brand new fairing from Yamaha in this code.

Thanks for the link darrsi, I already checked that post but I couldn't see a code for a solid red colour initially!
Freck - yes it seems I did get them mixed up, the original colour of my Fazer according to the sticker under the seat is VRC7, so VRC1 must be the solid red colour.
I'll go embarrass myself somewhere else  :rollin
Thanks for the help!
