Tiny picture, but I had https://leftrightandcenter.net/ paint my 72 S2 bodywork a modern candy green, with a color variation of the stripes to match:

This is a green 2016 Mercedes. I am contemplating using this (on my H1E) as a base colour with the 2015 Kawasaki Vulcan S Candy Metallic Green as the stripe? Then use the original striping and lettering on the tank.

Comparing to these done by LRC... So hard to get the right colour.....

I've done mine the Honda red but not too happy with it, it seems too dark.

I thought the same thing about the Honda red. I still don't know how I'm going to paint it.
Isn't it sacrilegious to paint a Kawasaki with Honda paint?

I don't think so - my H2 is Toyota Blue

Yes, even Kawasaki had a lot of color variation. My early '72 H2 was nearly sky blue, and my later '72 is much darker.

That's a good looking color, Z.
