No idea on that one. Are you referring to the C50/70/90`s or another model?
You could try asking Menno, he may have records or paint codes?

1955 750 Dresda Triton
1978 Moto Morini 350 Sport

A few years ago RS also used to list their paint code for Lechler paint which they use, as well as the colour name
I have had rattle cans filled at my local Lechler stockist far cheaper than buying from RS paints.
I would visit my local Lechler stockist and talk to them.

 All good info. Cheers Chaps.
I have a feeling I may be bringing home a Beaver Brown Placcy. From the Manx this year. Its in a place where all things mechanical. Go to die. So it needs saving.
Thanks again.

I passed my test on a Beaver Brown C90.
I parked it up in the garage and never rode it again.  Rode my 400four legally after that.
