1977 Emerald Green paint match? Close Match code?

I want to paint my KZ emerald green but have not been able to find a very close code to match the green. Has anyone or does anyone have a match or very close match for the candy emerald green color

Its a two colour process. First its painted metalic silver then it has a candy emerald green over it and then clear over that of course. Lecher do the two paints you need. I'll have a look in the paint stock to give you the lecher codes. This picture behind my bike is a period picture from Kawasaki but the lighting in the hall wasn't great for photo's.

Sorry I do not have any 650 matches. I am sure it is a candy color, so do not go with a car color.

What are Lecher codes?????

Lechler…..not sure if it is available in the US. Worth looking into. Great if you know anybody that ships vehicles across the ocean on container ships.

I have a vintage Vetter fairing that was factory supplied to Kawasaki in what looks like the same metallic green from the pictures. It is in almost perfect shape paintwise. Maybe you could contact Vetter and see if they can supply a paint code or maybe we could get this fairing color read locally? Dach.
