paint colour for yz white?

[mainline]

has anyone experimented with the off-the-shelf spraycans to find a white that matches the original YZ colour? Yamaha called it "Clean White"

cheers

Good timing Mainline - just about to touch my bike up and I wasn't happy with the previous white I used (it wasn't stark enough) so I am much interested in the reply.

thanks

yep - sure am!

[mainline]

doesn't look like it's getting us anywhere, apparently no-one has ever managed to match the colour?

I buy a couple of cans and let you know how I get on.

[Rossvickicampbell]

no dramas - I am going through the same exercise next week so will compare with you on this.

thanks!

I bought a Holts Powerplus touch up spray from supacrap this arvo and it looks pretty good. It's "stark white"

I'll check in daylight tomorrow when it's dry and let you know

[mainline]

the aformentioned Holts colour seems pretty good Rossco, I checked it this arvo against one of Concourse Plastics' new guards.

[Rossvickicampbell]

Mainy - I tried a Holts before but it wasn't the stark white coz I had nothing with me when I went.  I am home again this weekend so will have a look as I have a new guard to try and match.

Thanks for this.

cheers

no worries Rossco, I was pretty happy with the end result too. I had to paint a yellow US sidecover to match.

Cheers

Hi all,
        have any of you been able to find out the correct color code for the YZ`s of the G and H models, they are not a stark white as described earlier on in this thread but more of an off white. I have tried a few different pressure packs but no luck.

I am not doing a resto just trying to tidy up my race bike, any help appreciated. Peter.
