Candy Jade Green.
Oddjob:
My USA May 1971 parts book lists it as Candy Jet Green. That's listed like your pic Ash, where the tank is shown as colours.
However my 1972 UK parts book doesn't list the colours on the tank or side panel page, it shows them by paint codes, in this case KD.
The front of the parts book shows a table which lists the code and the corresponding colours and KD is listed as Candy Jade Green not Jet.
Which TBH makes more sense, Jet is black, Jade is Green, so why describe a colour as Candy Black Green is beyond me.

Not significant in 1971/72 if you were ordering parts from a dealer .. you would specify what is listed in the parts listing IMHO that;s what Honda called it

Agree, but why would anyone be ordering a candy jade green in UK, it was never available in the UK model range 🤔🤔🤔
Oddjob:
It's not listed as for the UK Ash, it shows the countries they were available in and it shows the colour as Candy Jade Green for those countries where it was available.

I didn't specify it would be ordered from the UK. I meant anyone in the 'market' to order one would use the parts book reference.... which describes the colour as Jet not Jade
