    Alright guys.

    I have a 2010 HRC Blade. The once lovely gold wheels now have a small score on them after a clumsy wheel removal. Anyone know of the colour code for the wheels so I could endeavour to touch them up? I've scoured the web but cant find anything :sad:

    Also, its only a small mark, but if anyone can give some advice on the best way to touch it up, that would be awesome (i sont really want to go down the route of having the whole wheels resprayed as its not that bad yet.

    Cheers!

    I would say contact Honda direct or someone like Dream Machine who specialise in resprays etc, just got my HRC so not sure what the code would be yet. Good luck

    Same happened to mine.

    Just get a gold marker pen and lightly fill in the scratch then buff off with a cloth.

    Bobs your uncle.

    Or try quixx polish/scratch treatment

    Comes in 2 parts a polish which fills in the scratch with surrounding paint and a sealer to protect it. It does work.

    The gold pen is the best bet though

    Thanks for the responses so far guys.

    Looks like the marker pen is the best bet. I'll give it a whirl.

    Not sure if you're still on the lookout for this, but if you are, have a chat with the guys and girls at RS Bike Paint

    They'll see you right.

    Thanks Sossige.
    They dont list the wheel paint code, but i've dropped them a mail on the off chance.
    I used the marker pen solution and its holding up quite well, but would still like a closer match.
    Cheers all

    I had the same with my Speed Triple - rang them and they were very helpful over the phone. I'm sure they'll try and help you out :)
