Hi
Thanks for that
Looks like there may be a couple of silvers.
Is the bikes paint code stamped in anywhere? To aid identification?
Cheers

Hi
Is the paint code not on a sticker or frame stamp on the bike?
Thanks

Gareth,

if you have a 1000 Rap then the top silver is the only one.

The lower silver is actually a darkish grey that was only used on the 650.

Thanks for that appreciate it, does top silver have a paint code, or will a body shop recognise just the name
Cheers

Hi. As far as i know the raptor paint colours are the same as used by fiat. A good body shop should have some colour chips so you can get a good idea.

Sorry about this, but mine is a 2003 V raptor, its a silvery/ goldish colour
having a nightmare finding a match.

There seems to be a couple of silvers, is there anyway of norrowing it down?
Thanks again

I am pretty sure none of the colours changed throughout the years of the Vrap. So the silver from the 2000-2002 should be exactly the same as that for later years.

V-Raptor 1000 / 2000-2002
Rahmen-Farbe: PALINAL BRONZO MET.211.E 144
Felgen-Farbe: SALCHI BASE FIN BRONZO 653G000
Lackteile:
Silber: PPG FIAT GRIGIO MISTRAL 646
Rot: PPG 473.103 ROSSO CAGIVA

The silver colour listed above from that earlier thread should be the same for your bike.
