    I just bought a 1983 Maxim 400 that I want to paint the original red color,it is now metallic green.Does anyone know what the paint code and proper name is for this Yamaha red? I also want to paint the engine block(minus the polished side covers) the original silver,could I get proper name and code for the engine paint also?

    Thanks James
    I also own a 1982 Maxim 400(burgundy)
