I buy automotive paint from Keystone (they are in every city), but I have to tell paint guy paint code.
I am thinking about Kawasaki green or fluorescent green.
Who knows? thanks.
How much paint is usually enough? 1 quart?

Keystone won't have kawasaki codes. He is looking for a car manufacturer code.
Just look at his chip chart with the greens. He can lighten or darken any green close to what your looking
Last time I used keystone here they were using Valspar base coats. A pint will be plenty. My paint guy will mix a minimum of 4 ounces.
Check out the new Chevy synergy green Painted our gasser last year with it, it was base coat /clear

Replied by Zephyrrider on topic Kawasaki green paint code and fluorescent green.
Watch the first video - Daytona - on home page - it gives you the green/blue ratio there as well if that is any help .

When I purchased the paint for mine I used a Dupont color code. Don't remember the number but I got it from the KZ1000R forum.

No Radiator here, It's cooled with Methanol fuel, 1/8 mile at a time!
