Paint
My fairing has a spot on it where a PO scrapped up against something. Where can I find the base color for an 88?

Re: Paint
Paint shops have a handheld paint analyzer: much more accurate, as it will match the paint on the bike, in its current (faded) condition. They just scan the paint you want duplicated, and then they mix it up for you. Cheers!

Re: Paint
Hadn't thought of that. Guess that spot will wait till its warm enough to get it back on the road.

Re: Paint

Re: Paint
Yeah I checked there but it seems they dont have anything for the Voyagers from 86 through at least 89. I didnt check any higher. After thinking about it a bit I think I am just going to ride it until winter and do a full paint job on it.
