Haha robmacs signature!


Now i may be completely wrong here - wouldnt the paints have been of a significantly different formula back then? Meaning probably hard to get hold of now. Unless of course its a very close match type of thing?

The previous owner has given a race exhaust as well with it... they are quite tight on noise in swiztherland.. so he does not run it

Ive got a thing for 80's & 90's big Suzukis I was running a 82 GSX1100 I'll probably put it back into service this year. That Slab Side I have both kinds of standard wheels, the other ones are the three spoke wheels which are like hens teeth in the same size (the back one might be a little wider) Ive got a few Suzi's
This 'was' my daily ride. Ive got two of them

Certain paint shops (as in shops that sell paint, not places where they repair bodywork etc) can put a scanner onto a part and determine the exact mixture needed to get exactly the same colour.
So if all else fails, ask another slabside Gixxer owner to get the colours on his fairing scanned.
