If you want to do powder coat PPG Vermillion is a dead on match...

The best thing I've found if you ride/race the thing is Duplicolor ceramic engine paint. Chevy orange 1620. Way more durable than the Colorite flash red, 1/2 the price. Use dark primer and it's a very good match. If you are going to keep the thing a long time, and use it, I don't recommend powder for the frame. Too hard to remove/repair. If it is a restore for limited use, powder is good. I do like it for the hard parts like footpegs etc.

I'm pretty sure the thread is 12 years old!

I bought a few cans of custom mixed RAL 2002 paint. I painted the subframe and I didn't like it.  Was too orange imo. Then I bought 2 cans of ColorRite flash red for 85-87 CR's. The color is perfect. image000000 220240908 125538
