The paint codes for our bikes are over in the tech vault. Any automotive paint store should be able to fix you up.

dmillikan had a Goodwood Green touch up kit in the classifieds last week and I missed it by one PM. You might contact him for his source. Hey, when you find a good source how about posting it for the rest of us "Greenies"?

Fellow Greenie here. I have a tube of Goodwood that I got from the dealer. (he had to order it)I found it kind of thick, but the color matches perfectly. It's expensive too. Anybody that wants it, send me your info and I'll try to dig it out of my box-o-spare parts and it's yours.
I go to parties, sometimes untill 4. It's hard to leave when you can't find the door.

I've never been able to find a number for it. It's not listed in Triumph's paint codes. It's like it doesn't exist. If anyone finds out a number or where you can get touch up in Mulberry Red, please post it here.

That was fast. People reply quickly to free things.

There is a local auto body shop that can match colors to perfection. Between the home and work fleets, I've seen them match colors a half dozen times, and never make a mistake. I've had them make 3 & 4 ounces of touch up paint in the past, even for truck paint codes. My point being I would want to believe that good body shops 'round the country can do the same. If I recall, a small bottle of paint set me back around $30, but I offer this as a possible last resort.
