Give me the frame number and i'll tell you :-)

NH196 is Ross White (Which refers to the base colour)...

I wanted to ask you where you got the colour mapping from and I think I pressed the "report this post button" by mistake, lol. Hope the admin will figure it out. Sorry.

They only made specific colours each year, so it's easy to work out what it should have originally been.

As their bike is the same colours as mine and i thought mine was a one off. Looking at their headlight fairing i can now see how mine should be as i have a fiberglass replacement on(was on when i got the bike) and i have been thinking about re-spraying it orange. Now i see it should also have stripes too. 'Happy Days' :grin:
