83 KZ550A Red Sticker color code

My "550" sticker has about a dime size piece of the red missing from it which exposes white. I would like to get some sort of red color touch-up paint and do that because the actual 550 has clear coat over it and part of the paint. Any suggestions on which red is most similar?

1982 Suzuki SZ1000 (Katana)
1997 Honda CR500

I would try Testors model kit red paint. or maybe pinstripe tape. If a guy is determined to find a better match, I guess he could get some color sample cards from the home depot, then try to find a good match. or using a good smart phone, take a pic & edit it if necessary so that the color matches the tank. then check the various mfgs. duplicolor. krylon. rustoleum. autozone. automotive touch-up paint. honda. ford. etc. .... 1983 Kawasaki KZ550 Decal Set

Testors enamel paints

Vinyl Pinstriping Pinstripe Tape 28 Colors available ... just an example to show some available colors. there are many more to choose from & the auto parts store probably has pinstriping.
