I am restoring an 84 CS Last edition. I know the paint scheme is 571. The main color is Pearl White 137 but I am unsure about the pin stripes which are a combination of single on the seat and triple on the fairing. Snowbum's site seems to indicate that the pinstripe colors are 113 (Motorsport Red), 114(Motorsport Light Blue) and 115 (Motorsport dark blue). Can anyone verify this?
Thanks, Dave Luke
Hello Dave, I guess it look like you have discovered the number on the rear fender is not the paint code but the overall finish code including the paint, and pinstripes colors.
There was a British website or group called BM riders, it is now gone but I believe the archives are still on line. I will try to find the link on my other computer and post it. They had a run down of paint stuff over the years. I don't know if it would be much help.
Snow bum is my usual go to guy for stuff and I would sort of believe he is right. I will try to post the website later today. St.

Thanks Steve. I appreciate the help.
Here is the BM bike link to the archived website, good luck. St. BM bikes
