I held a chart up to a late model KX radiator shroud and it's almost a perfect match to PMS 368.

DUDE! That a "metallic"! No spot color is gonna be real close to that.

It doesn't help that my chart is 2+ years old (don't give that crap about "fade" and such, either). Since the latest chart I can find is a '01, your kinda SOL, cuz I ain't plannin' on buying another one of those overpriced POS anytime soon.

BTW - I thought you were talkin' about "true" Kawasaki Racing green.

I will try to take my old chart home and check it against my scoot.

3405? Are you on CRACK? Maybe for those "loser canook" versions.

You got three choices, since it's depends on which angle you look at it.

PMS 376 is the overall closest.
PMS 369 is a tad darker, but has the "rich" hue of the bike's color. This color would work best as a "stand alone" color (no outline, et. al.)
PMS 368 is brighter and would work best if you were to outline it with a darker color (i.e. black)

what I need to know is which PMS color most closely resembles a Green ZX12 ... take yer pms book and hold it up against a friggin green 12 pleeeeez. I know it's metallic but ignore that and look at the base color for me.
