Unusual question for you all...

Postby Ash™ on Wed Jul 23, 2008 11:29 pm

Hi all, I'm Ash :) I haven't got a motorbike (yet) so until then I'll have to stick with four wheels.

My old Capri (I told you it'd be an unusual question...) needs a lick of paint but the previous owner had it resprayed at some point in a non-standard colour. He doesn't know what colour it is other than he thinks it's one used on a Honda bike. Do any of you guys recognise it?

Thanks in advance,

Ash.

Hi there Ash mate nice wheels the 28 is probably the best Capri ever built and if I'm not mistaken the last of the classic Capri's built before it was discontinued :evil:

Anyway photo not too clear is it black or is it a dark blue?

If its the latter then I believe it was used by Honda for the VFR 800 VTEC of around 02-04 :roll: which also happens to be my favourite colour for that model.

I hope this has helped a little, but I'm quite sure that a more knowledgable HOC member out there will prove me wrong :lol:

It's a lovely motor :) Thanks for your help! It's like a purpley-blue colour with a blue fleck in there, here's another pic, hope it helps.

If you take the petrol flap to a paint suppliers they will mix paint to match.
