painting

want to paint my Big Red. Where can I find the proper color/paint besides Honda dealer?

Ask the honda dealer for a paint code, then you can go to any good auotmotive paint store and give them the code and they can either order it or make it for you.

That's kinda what I thought. Just wanted to see if anyone else had already re-painted and might have the proper name/code handy.

I 'stole' my 85' for $200 and have pretty well restored it. Only thing left is replacing bearings in swing arm and rear end. Guy wanted Christmas money and thought rear end was stripped out. Wrong! Split in boot let water in. Little black silicone and oil change fixed up quickly. Rebuilt carb and put brakes on front. Off and running like the wind. Need new rear brake panel but other than that I am happy with my trike.
