FELLOW K MEMBERS,
HELP
DUE TO A NASTY LITTLE CRASH OVER THE HOLIDAYS, THE KWAKA IS IN NEED OF NEW FAIRINGS, AND OF COURSE PAINT.

DOES ANYBODY KNOW THE PAINT CODE OR AT LEAST A NAME FOR THAT EVER IMPRESSIVE GREEN, THAT EMBLAZES OUR FINE MACHINERY.

ANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED
THANKS FUNKY

I believe, if i'm not mistaken, that each model is slightly different (i.e. and 04 ZX10R is different to the 03 ZX10R which is also different to the ZX6R etc)

But that could also be a load of crap... you decide. :roll:

You're spot on Dave certainly for the 04 and 05 model 10R's. The green is a slightly different shade although I think the 04 6R's are the same shade as the 05 10R's, confusing or what. I know the 10's because the twat where I bought mine from tried to sell me an 04 single seat cowl and convince me that it was a different colour because the japs can't paint plastic (dealers??????)

What the code is though, I've got no idea.

Good luck Funky. Maybe try a decent spray painter who'll match it for you.
