Title: Suzuki plastic colours
Post by: oldfart on September 27, 2008, 11:47:15 am
At the end of each part # there is a colour code    ie 163 = yellow   ( Frame covers )
                             
What colour is   81 W                      my research  tells me   black gloss
                      13 L                          Ditto                      silver

can anyone else confirm this , as Suzuki have run out of  163 and only have  the above in stock  WORLD WIDE

I would say that is right-I have got the silver ones before but not black until i got a side cover from the UK this year- It is a pain in the A ,but use a "gentle" paint stripper and then "Plastic Renew" and all will be good- or get repro stuff and save the good stuff for later.

Rm 250-400 1980                  47111-40300-163     RHS
                                         47211-40300-163     LHS
I require 4 LHS & 4 RHS  in the 163 colour                          at present I have the DC plastic kit  :o
having to drill holes into the plastics and zip tie them in place doesn't appeal to me ( no frame rail tags )  ::)

Vintage suzukis stuff is excellent and close enough to OEM

These parts are available from Suzuki, you can still buy new genuine Suzuki side panels, front mudguard, and front number plate for RM250 / 400 T.
Maybe need to look outside Aus though  :(
Rear mudguard is a little more challenging to find...

found these, but probably too bad for your use?
