I'm looking for suggestions on matching the factory color for the clutch cover. It's faded by the sun and the part under the fairing isn't. I know powder coat, but any paint that matches?
How anyone can even think of riding a motorcycle with a sun faded clutch cover is right up there with nuking Canada. Some may disagree Here's the dudes to call for the paint code: Honda Motorcycles Customer Service Number: 1-800-999-1009 Could be that the topcoat is oxidized and can be rubbed oot. Use fine rubbing compound. The white stuff in cans should be fine. 3M makes finer grit in pints and larger volumes. Nothing wrong with powdercoating... Remove the cover, clean it of oil, buy a new gasket and take the cover to an automotive paint store and start looking for a close match in a chip book. I figure time, material and transportation for a job like this at aboot $250-300 pesos, so it might be cheaper just to buy a new OEM cover.
I removed mine, rubbed it down, undercoated and sprayed it gloss black, which isn't the right finish compared to OEM, but it looks pretty good and cost me buttons and certainly looks better than it did.
