Interesting to see how Honda made Candy Garnet Brown and Bacchus Olive by mixing colours. Also if I ever lock up my CL450 transmission now I won't panic, thank you Ash.

That was a lucky accident then, if my CL450 gearbox ever locks when I am pushing backwards with the clutch in, I now know its the kickstart...

All the talk of Candy Apple and Star Apple may be paint but it makes my mouth water, apart from the being poisonous thing. I never heard of the term 'Glamour Color' before actually I'm surprised there's a 'u' in 'glamour' in a US bulletin, it's not often they spell things right. I guess it's also what they called 'trick paint'.

I didn't know you had a Kawasaki library too, That's the Z1 colour I'd like best, too.

Mind you, Menno would be painting it :)

Always an interesting read.

I am doing a Kawasaki z900 now in brown-orange, just for me.
Those lines are really interesting to do - bucket list material..
A green yellow z900 is planned as well...
