Title: Looking for paint codes
Post by: Tuned forks on August 21, 2019, 10:55:28 PM
For the '93, I'm looking for the paint code to Dark Violet Cocktail.  Is it on this tag?  Anyone know where Yamaha put the paint codes?

Not sure if this will help or not. Worth a try

Joe, paint codes are obsolete.
At most, if not all, professional paint shops they have computerized color matching analysis hardware and software. They can match with remarkable accuracy any sample you bring them.

That said, (Thanks to Harvey) here's how to decipher the Yamaha code numbers:
