Re: Re: Paint Colour

Hi, I sent a side panel down to RS Bike Paint (very helpful) and they tell me that the bike has been painted at some time, so not original & difficult to identify the colour. Having seen other Z750B’s in a very similar colour, I do think that the current paint is a very close match to those. I thought it might have been Diamond Brown but RS sent me a swatch of this colour and it’s quite different (Diamond Brown a lot lighter than mine). After looking at the colour chart link you sent, I see there was another colour ‘new for 1977’ called ‘Dark Diamond Brown’ and I’m now wondering if it might be that. My bike was first registered in December 1976, so not sure??? The plot thickens….Cheers
