Go into your local halfords and such like, Spot the colour you like and give them that.

Or

Hi Mark,

i just got some touch up paint (for a TZR) from ebay for my XT
I believe the white and red is common to a few Yamaha models of that era. the red is called 'chappy' red.

the codes are

0036 White white, and 00E1 "Chappy" red frame

hope this helps

Andy

Thanks for the replies,now as I've got the paint code I'll go for the Chappy Red option.

I did the same a couple of weeks ago, my local halfords had a Yam swatch and got a match easily. There was no original paint code supplied by Yamaha according to two specialists near me!
