I am touching up some spots on the engine of my 86 R.

Anyone find a paint thats a good or exact match?? So far its trial and error.

Gunmetal grey is the stock color, I suggest you use gunmetal grey. ;) just play around with different brands untill you find the best one.

Darius, I could never find any paint that was close to the "Dark-shot silver" color on the '86 250R. That's why I decided to change the color to silver, a color that was readily available and looked good with the rest of my color scheme. Good luck in your search.

Many automotive paint shops can put any color in a can from their color swatches
