I downloaded the Yamaha paint colour chart and tried to find my paint code and colour name but to no avail, well there are so many options on the PDF and it not the easiest to navigate (Especially when your blind, I use the cats eyes as braille when riding) anyone have any idea? The Yamaha is a 2003 Registered Foxeye FZS600 in silver with a black frame. The label under the seat near the battery has this on it: See photo

could not find this code on the PDF so HELP.
Any one got any ideas.

someone told me it was ADRIAN BLUE/SILVER. And another website I went to said it was SILVER ICE.

The 5RT1 is a 2002 manufactured model, most likely registered in 2003.

The official Yamaha name of the colour of your fazer is "Silver 1"

The official Yamaha colour code is 755 and the abbreviation is S1
The colour Silver 1 is also used on the 5RT4 2003 models

Hiya Unfazed,
Thank so much for the info, it seems none of the info that I had previously been given was correct, most helpful thanks, saves me ending up with a rattle can or two of the wrong colour.

Sun came out so had my fist ride of the season, a couple of hours on north Yorkshire moors. I rode some of the roads that I had my first ever Rideout at the tender age of 17 almost 40 years ago....the sun shone that day too.

Rode the mighty 6 60 mile round trip to pick up a pair of cage brake discs, upsets the handling with 2 brake discs in a back pack

Weren't me, took a mate to Johns Of Romford to pick up his new bike, bought a 600 H0^6a wouldn't listen to me, then took a short bimble up to Ongar before returning home.

70 mile Spring bimble north of Lichfield up towards Ashbourne-first day my fingertips didnt feel cold since put the "Reviver" back on road 1st March.
Wilbers rear shock has totally transformed the handling ( coupled with some grease in the suspension linkage bearings!

).
Am off to Cornwall in cage today for a week but will log in using smartphone on sisters wifi.
Looks like its going to be a glorious biking day-ride safe fellow foccers & enjoy.

Replacing the fork oil seals today. One's been leaking for about a fortnight now, finally a bit of good weather for some spanner work.

Fitted new cree lights under my mirrors as don't fancy drilling through the fairing and can't find the wee brackets I had planned to use, but tbh I quite like where they are

They sure are Mick.

Hopefully cage drivers will see me a bit better as they're in eyeline view, hopefully

They're really bright considering the size is less than a 5p piece

Got them at the show yesterday, 4 for £10 so my mate bought two but he said I can fit his for him, he's very kind that way.
