1981 Black Seca 750 Paint Code?

Not to be found anywhere? I have searched on this site and other paint sites and the oldest I can find is 1982 or 1985.

If we don't have a code, what is the Yamaha name? New Black?

 

It might be easier to go to a body shop supply center or even a body shop itself and ask them if they can look it up.They should have a book full of paint chips dating back you can look at and find the black from the same year as yer bike(or they can match it up with a black with the paint chips).I work in a shop and i looked in the book for my 82 red.there wasnt any "variations" of the same red so i believe they used it for a number of years same red.I have called Yamaha and the serial # doesnt have the paint code like a regular car does so it took a bit of comparing.Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for the post. THe shop is a side project for a mechanic and his auto body brother, so he does not have the big books of the large shops, hence his price is half...

He has exact match paint already made up, so he will be your best source for the code

Actually, he's the best source for anything XJ

 

Not anything. Still waiting for that winning lottery number from Len.

 

He gave it to me, it worked perfectly.
