VFR + RVF paint codes
Theres often a lot of Questions about this topic.
So for a definitive post on the subject, I'll start by listing the paint codes as physically checked against a 2k MaxMeyer professional paint chip codebook.
These codes are suitable for painting those parts originally covered in stickers too.
Honda RC30 VFR750RR Code: NH193
White: Pearl White NH193
Red: Fighting Red R134
Light Blue: Azurro 7001M
Dark Blue: Seychell Night Blue PB186
Black: Pure Black B095 (or NH1) Sticker only on O.E.
Stripes: Sparkling Silver NH295M * Sticker only on O.E.
Honda NC30 VFR400R3L Code: NH196
White: White NH196
Red: Fighting Red R134
Light Blue: Wistaria Blue PB166
Dark Blue: Seychell Night Blue PB186 * Sticker only on O.E.
Stripes: Sparkling Silver NH295M * Sticker only on O.E.
Honda NC35 RVF400RR Code: NH196
White: White NH196
Red: Winning Red R127
Light Blue: Dionisus Blue PB228 * Sticker only on O.E.
Dark BLue: Florida Blue PB182
Black- Tail boards are a satin vinyl and very difficult to paint match! Use B095 Pure black with matting agent mixed in as advised by paint supplier
Honda NC35 RVF400RT Code: NH196
White: White NH196
Red: Winning Red R127
Black: Pure Black B095(or NH1)Sticker only on O.E.
Dark Purple: Purple Porsche 36C * this was never a true Honda colour and the code is the closest found after HOURS of checking!

The Yellow RVF logo is also not a real colour. It is bright yellow, almost but not quite dayglo. I'd get a sticker for this from Image works or Morgan Designs.
VFR4003L Black/red with silver piece:
Code NH1K
Black: NH1
Red:

Re: VFR + RVF paint codes
Does anyone know the Castrol codes?
And would it be better to have the decals painted on, rather than stickers.

Re: VFR + RVF paint codes
Now that i have eventually found the codes where is the best place to buy these colours i need for my NC 35
Do you get them on the internet easy enough and do you get them in paint sticks

Re: VFR + RVF paint codes
Since we seem alone in our search for a can off paint for our wheels - all the rest must be rich enough just to get them powder coatted ??!! anyway have fired off an email to Bike paints.co.uk for a quote for a 400ml aerosol can off NH196 white, will let you know how I get on ??
