Does anyone else have a yellow bip?
I swear there's about 3 different shades of yellow on there.
Am I nuts?
Where's a better place to get touchup paint > halfords or motorcyclepaint.co.uk?

[Nigel C]

Yes i have noticed that too

try yellowbip on here for touchup paint

[custard]

I have a yellow bip, depends what the paint has been applied to, eg metal tank, plastic body panels etc. Are you sure your bike has'nt been down the road

[Yellow Bip]

I do supply touch ups for most Ducatis, and yes there is about 5 different yellows which are all for the different models so you have to sure you have all info to get correct colour.
You can only check that your bike is all the same colour or should i say shade by taking it all to bits and putting panels together in sunlight, as all the different angels and shadows play havoc with the colour. Hope this helps.
You will definately be able to tell if it has been down the road by checking the back of the panels.

Do you sell the paint by the spraycan, touchup stick or can (for spraying)?
£?
cheers

it's for the 2001 model 748E if that helps.

Gunfire...just call

Just phone them and quote the following colour code P1-s5 Yellow.

what about your local council depot - they call it 'skip' yellow.
