Singles.....Yellow paint code

Hi Guys,

Can anyone tell me what the colour code is or a similar car colour to the yellow used on the desmo singles? It's quite a dark yellow it seems, darker than the modern ducati yellow.

The nearest that I found in the UK was Ford Signal Orange.

There were no paint codes and often colors varied between body parts on the same motorcycle. The yellows varied from a school bus yellow to a near orange. It was all up to the man who was mixing paint and the supplier Ducati wasn't on a credit hold with.

The best thing to do is to take the original painted part that you saved and have a paint store computer match it. It might still be different from your buddy's bike which is the same model but it would be the most original for "your" bike.
