I found out the hard way that the dealer I bought my 95 S2 from installed the wrong size battery and the battery cover that fits under the retaining strap worked it's way loose and started to arc weld itself to the battery tray. I need t find the frame paint code or color description please.

Thanks

Sikkens made the paint and last I heard was no longer available in the USA...

You'll have to have a custom match done.
Pengy is right, the paint formulas were changed in 1999 or so to meat EPA regs. All the formulas changed and there is no cross match.
Find a good auto painter and have them do a match..

We have the technology.

Send me a photo of the bike and let me check with the 2 guys who painted it.

Likely an easy fix.

It's the 95 I picked up from PA when Mike Royniak (sp) picked up the 96 S1 the same weekend. I think he has sent you several pics of this bike.

If not I will get some out to you.

Send me a pic of how much damage there is . . . I **think** I have some white frame touch up paint if it's a small area.

I'm having issues getting a good pic up, but the size of the damaged paint is approximately 1 inch by 1/2 inch
