The color code is secret but the formula is:
1 part ground kawasaki,
2 parts suzuki head(shaved),
1 oz. hodaka road toad skin,
and a dash of pure evil. mix well and ride hard!

its a little dirty. I painted it all with a silver engine enamel which was a mistake since the fuel broke it down, but it still looks good :D

silver has to have clear coat over it, look for satin or semi gloss

I found a really nice paint that I used on my YSR frame and motor that is a "cast aluminum" color and seems to hold up a lot better.
