being in the UK myself I asked this very question for the '92 600 tri colour paint job
I was told Sikkens Paints Ltd (check google for addy ) do:-
Kawa400 ( pearl white) YAM9044 Red metallic as being close matches
REAL YAM-COLOURS:-
Silky white 00GE (that is zero zero G E)
apple red ARE 00H9 ( ARE zero zero H 9 )
no one could tell me the blue so far HTH

Hi that info is a godsend but the blue is the b$%tard i've been to a factors and they are not interested....even been to bnq to see if they can match it....
You wouldnt happen to know if a FZR600 hugger will fit on my FZR1000 exup?
Many thanks for all your help....I will keep on searching for the blue...
I contacted Yamaha and they have said all colours for my bike should be on a label on the base of the seat or on the side of the battery box !!! fooking hell its 21 years old....
thanks

L,
The 6 does not have a hugger unless it has some other swinger and / or it is an after market job and the UK 'glass guys do not stock one at least about 2 years ago may have changed.
The 1K looks sound for sure, nice one

As I said I never ever found a source for a 6 but the 1K should have try :-
ALKAMOTO_UK on Ebay.co.uk his name is Alan tell him Yamaha_george put you onto him. Very pleasant guy to deal with fone number was :- 07775-603320
two other Alans also into body parts:-
bodypanels4bikes 07884-061537
& 0129-460-5477
Had dealings with all of them in the past all seem relaible YMMV

L,
Sorry that is not my area by along way, I only own 1 bike in ex -factory nick out of 12 bikes all the rest have been modified in some way. Most of the "Restro" guys I know do it themselves (ie farm out work to painters etc but that is about it.
I would drop "Classic Bike " mag an email and see what they have to say, pictures @ 300dpi for scans or .jpg pictures to
classic.bike@bauermedia.co.uk.
Best I can say really.
