Steve698 11 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Does anyone have an idea as to the colour of the engine paint or should I say the crankcase and clutch housing covers on the NC750X, it looks like a dark metallic grey. Link to post
Steve698 11 Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 I take it no one has had any bother with the paint on the engine. This dark grey metallic colour ? Anyone ? Link to post
Slowboy 20,654 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I tend to wet and dry it back and then use a rattle can silver that’s closest (to my eye) and lacquer it. Then do it again when it needs doing. Don’t think Honda list it as a “colour”. Link to post

Thanks that is where I was heading, contacted Honda direct and they tell me they don't keep records of engine colours and to contact a colour matching company at 4x the price of a small touch up paint, think I'll fly by the seat of me pants. Does normal paint and lacquer hold up ok ? Edited December 29, 2020 by Steve698 Link to post
