Honda Color Codes
« on: October 11, 2005, 06:13:27 PM »
Came across a pretty comprehensive color code chart for the CB's.  Probably already on the site somewhere, but thought I'd share for those who don't want to search for it too long...

Can someone confirm if most / all / some of these codes are actually the correct colour.
From what I know they are "Lubritech" codes whom are no longer trading.
Honda never had colour codes and any relation to codes and Honda's can only be a later match derived by someone like Lubritech.

No.1 
I do Know that the lubritech code for "Candy garnet brown" is a maroon red according to two paint suppliers in my area. (I know this because the painter finished the job and presented me with a red tank and when I checked again I was shown a mix .....yup not C G Brown.

It hurts to admit when you've made mistakes, But when the're big enough, the pain only lasts a second
