Paint Colors / Paint Codes

[cadmanmadman]

Somewhere in here somebody listed the paint codes for the 84/85 & 86/87 models....Particularly, I'm interested in the codes for an '87, the red & the white.

Funny, when I was looking for it it was right there in front of me. Now that I'm looking for it i can't find it anywhere....

How about the code for an 89 also. It would be nice to know what color my bike was originally

Hello Folks, here's a old file I saved. Not sure it's current: Brian Hunt sent me more updated info. I'll look for.  Pat

[Chris Vollmer] I did a little searching with the parts fiche on CD (from Gary) along with the Color-Rite web site, here's what I found;  year color name yam. code on part #'s Color Rite # COLOR-RITE YAMAHA code (top coat) (Added by Chris V.): 1984 Quartz Silver 1U (01U?) 5145L 1698-QS/1U Stormy Red AJ (0AJ?) 5005U top, 1500U base 1711-SMR/AJ  1985 Stormy Red AJ (0AJ?) 5005U top, 1500U base 1711-SMR/AJ Silky White GE (0GE) 5035U top, 1100U base 1611-SW/GE  1986 Silky White GE (0GE) 5035U top, 1100U base Stormy Red AJ (0AJ?) 5005U top, 1500U base 1711-SMR/AJ  1987 Silky White GE (0GE?) 5035U top, 1100U base 1611-SW/GE Passion Red TF (1TF? or possibly 0TF?) ***  1989 Silky White GE (0GE?) 5035U top, 1100U base 1611-SW/GE Marble Silver OL (0OL?) 5418U 1805-MAS/OL  (2nd color scheme) Shiny Black NA (0NA?) 5544UL 1786-SBL/NA  1990 Shiny Black NA (0NA?) 5544UL 1786-SBL/NA Bluish Black Metallic MW (0MW?) 5600UL   (2nd color scheme) Silky White GE (0GE?) 5035U top, 1100U base 1611-SW/GE Light Grayish Blue Met. PO (0PO?) ***  1991 Silky White GE (0GE?) 5035U top, 1100U base 1611-SW/GE Dull Purplish Blue Met. P1 (0P1 ) *** "slight" possibilities, color codes are different; Deep Purplish Blue Met. 189/AEC 5422U Dark Purplish Blue Met. 564 5815U  1992/ Marble Silver OL (0OL) 5418U 1805-MAS/OL 1993 Dark Violet Cocktail 1 P1 (0P1?) ***  For all years, possibly the frame paint color; Silver 035 5616U  *** none found for any Yamaha, any year.
So, to answer your question, it looks as if Color Rite has not yet produced a batch of the 1990 Light Grayish Blue Metallic secondary color. They also seem to have missed the 1987 Passion Red, 1991 Dull Purplish Blue Metallic & 1993-1993 Dark Violet Cocktail 1, although I did see a few "slight" possibilities for the '92-93 color  [George Denison & Chris Vollmer] The Yamaha codes for my 86 are Stormy Red – PNT-84000-T0-AJ and Silky White – PNT-84000-K0-GE. I repainted the front fender and tail with Dupli-color's Ford FM 306 Cardinal Red, and the scoops with Ford FM 229 Oxford White. They're close to the original Yamaha tri-coat paints, and most people wouldn't notice the difference unless you told them. Color-rite sells paint pens in the original Yamaha colours for minor scratches.
When I painted my FJ almost 3 years now(1996), I could not match the white, and ordered the Yamaha Base coat white, and the colour coat, Silky white. It was approx 40ea. per quart. Part # PNT-84000-K0-05 White Base coat PNT-84002-K0-GE Silky White Colour Coat   Zoeken
