I love you guys,

Kawasaki has a part number(s) but they tell me you can not get it. strange don't you think when Honda, Yamaha, ect have it on the shelf, I don't want a gallon, just some touch up paint, just thought I would ask.

Mark
if you are in Melbourne
Original Finish in Kilsyth will make up a touchup kit for your Kwaka
if you can quote paint codes

for me (my Gpx 750R)
they did one ...a deep red and a white pearl ( 2) paint bottles
with a little bottle of clear coat for $40 for touch ups
or
if you can take a painted part (fairing etc)
they will match it

hth

cheers

i dont know if they ship to aust or if they can help you at all. but they should have your paint as they have the 05 colours.
i cant believe kwakka themselves cant help you :shock:
what colour you after exactly? cos if its just a simple colour any spray painter worth their salt will be able to mix it for you.

Thats right, Kwaka will not give/sell/wisper the paint codes or numbers to anyone, they don't even sell touch up paint. Best to go to an auto paint store and see if they can match it.

I have known this for a while, but NO ONE in Vic stocks motorcycle paint as per the factory part number.

Most places match the paint which is good enough.

I have a couple of panel beater mates that can match the paint to exact and give it to you if u need it in a tin to mix with thinners.

Mina
you will find all paint places mix paint to formulas as needed
whether it be house paint, car paint or bike paint
no-one stocks coloured or tinted paints these days
ask ya panel beater mates how much 'tinted to colour' paint he holds
and apart from some panel black..probably none
he will tint his own(as per the code) ,as needed


cheers
