in the UK, officially, the codes were never released

BUT

trawl through ebay there are a couple of companies that do the touch in paints....

anything larger than a touch in job i would use some one like dream machine


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Not just UK - paint codes were not released.
I did once find some Aprilia paint codes - they are in the Technical Section but don't think there were any Falco ones amongst them.

I've used them before. The bronze was a spot on match. My painting skills however weren't so good....... :smt011

Rusty?

*shrugs*

I dont think Aprilia released their codes as such or at least theyre theyre the harder side of impossible to find..

Aftermarket paint suppliers are the way to go methinks.

Raptor Superpaint in Cambridgeshire get a huge thumbs up if you need parts respraying to a high quality.
