Spectre gold.....anyone know the code?
05 Oct 2017 18:48
Wondering what the paint code is for Spectre gold, ....anyone know? Gonna paint my pin-striping on the tank, side covers and fenders. Since I can't find any matching pin-striping, and I'm a lil leary bout trying to do sharp curves (side covers) w/ pin-stripes. Never done this before, but I'm about to give it a wirl.
Please advise. Thanks!!

I am not sure of the year/model your trying to match but I have had good luck with Diablo Cycle. They sell all sorts of reproduction decals for the older bikes. They site is a little hard to search but if you have the time it has most everything.

A color code is one thing but what you really need is a paint formula code. Each paint manufacturer creates these formulas, typically different for each paint line they sell. And since our KZ bikes are so old this info is next to impossible to get. You may be better off taking a sample of the color into your local auto paint store and ask them to match it. It won't be cheap but the color will be pretty close assuming they have a decent color guy doing the work.

Yeah, I looked high and low with no luck....before posting here lol. Sonic Gold
is pretty close to the color of the Spectre forks, shocks, wheels and engine cases, BUT doesn't seem as dark as the pin-striping.
Thanks guys
