paint question
The paint on the bottom of the 2000 red, is a metallic midnight purple. Does anyone know the paint code or some-where to get some touch-up paint. Color-rite doesn't have a listing. Thanks in advance, Dan.

There is no paint code available.I just got the paint rep to put there scope on the fairing and match it.It came out perfect.

Thanks for the reply cowboy. Could you give a little more detail. Are you talking about an ultra-violet scope? Where did you get it done? Do you still have the paint with the formula they used? Thanks Dan.

I just took my fairing into the body shop and told them i wanted to paint my rims to match the purple on the lower fairing.They called in there paint rep and he put some sort of scope on it and a couple days later the shop recieved the paint(perfect match).They are redoing my wheels at this time and they did give me some leftover paint(small jar)but i dropped it off at the place that is painting my helmet and wont see whats left for about 3 weeks when i get my helmet back.If you still need some touch up then i'll send you a bit(if there is any left).

Thanks Cowboy, that would be far too kind! I still have to call Kawasaki Canada tomorrow to see if they can help. Kawasaki U.S. said they have no info on it and that color-rite used to make the touch-up colors for them.
