Title: Paint codes.
Post by: Mattsplat on 27 February 2014, 03:05:57 pm
Ive got a green 09 GenII but I cant find the colour code for it...

Is there a sticker somewhere on the bike which tells me the colour?

Also interested in what colour silver the rad shrouds are, one side has a few scuffs from the previous owner.

Have you tried the RS site , type in your make model and year , and they list the paints available for that year .

Nope, RS doesn't list my colour.

I am pretty sure , that there was a thread on here about a sticker with the paint code being on the frame by the tank , but I don't know if that applies to the Gen1 or Gen 2 .

I did a little research and found these: http://www.pure-2-stroke-spirit.info/download/yamaha_color_codes.pdf (http://www.pure-2-stroke-spirit.info/download/yamaha_color_codes.pdf)  ,  http:/ersionclub.proboards.com/thread/19634 (http://foc-u.co.uk/http:/ersionclub.proboards.com/thread/19634)  ,  http://fazerowners.yuku.com/reply/275490/Re-Paint-code#.UxIURig-NZ0 (http://fazerowners.yuku.com/reply/275490/Re-Paint-code#.UxIURig-NZ0)  ,  http://www.motorradlack.de/produktliste/yamaha/yamaha-spritzlack/ (http://www.motorradlack.de/produktliste/yamaha/yamaha-spritzlack/)


I think I found it: Light greenish grey metallic, 676/LGNM6, order code at the last link: 49-0863.
You could try to get a small sample to determine wether it's the right one...

I think the BMW RT came in a color like it, I think... Oh, and by the way, I think the greenish FZ1s came in '07.
I hope this helps.

Are you sure It's an OEM colour? Could it have been a pro respray?

I saw one at my local dealership and it was definitely an OEM colour, the dealer said so... It's not very common though. The one I saw had the OEM lower fairings and looked quite good I thought. The colour was like this one:

And by the way I hope this is the colour Mattsplat is talking about. If not, I don't know what to suggest.

This is the colour of mine, green/grey-ish.

Anybody any idea what the actual colour is?

It look like graphite metallic to me too or maybe antracite (Does antracite have a greenish tint?). Could be the picture or my monitor though... I had another look at the page from the last link I posted and found a greenish black: http://www.motorradlack.de/produktliste/yamaha/yamaha-spritzlack/?start=183&inv_sort=&inv_search= (http://www.motorradlack.de/produktliste/yamaha/yamaha-spritzlack/?start=183&inv_sort=&inv_search=)  It's on the middle of the page roughly. The code is: RL/GNB, and the order number is 59-1828. The code for dark gray metallic is: 1086/DNMG, and the order number is 49-3792.
The colour on the rad shrouds is the same as the OEM silver metallic. This one I think: 767/LNMG, order number 49-1069.
I hope this helps.
