    I am doing a concourse restoration on my 1972 400 CR. I need to see if anyone has the proper paint code. Thanks!

    Just looked at that this morning. Volume 21 of the newsletter. Says the code is for 73 upwards, not sure if same for earlier bikes. I have a 72 360, would like to know for sure.

    If for the frame, the silver is common for all years. If you want the best match for tank color the best to do is clean and polish any remaing paint and take to an automotive paint dealer. Have it matched or color scanned if large enough area of paint is intact
