Title: 1986 K100 Colour Query...
Post by: Rich1989 on August 20, 2015, 08:26:27 AM
Hi Folks,

My first post in the forum, great to be here.

Bought my K100 a few months back as a standard bike and turned it into a bratstyle cafe mongrel.

Looking at having the tank restored and was wondering if anyone could identify the paint name and colour. It's a metallic pearl white, kind of cream as per pics...

Thanks in advance!!

Sorry for the upside down pics

I answered your PM, but thought I'd post a copy here in case someone in the future uses "search" and finds this question.

678? That's the code that appears to be from the factory applied decal under the seat of the Stormtrooper (1993 K75S). Welcome to the forum. I think you'll find it to be a very useful resource.

JcJ - thank you for your PM and your reply, really helpful!

Johnny - that link is excellent:

My bike registered march 1986 although it seems the Pearlmutt White with blue pin stripes from sept 86 is a match.

Thank you both for your input!
