Thank you! Can I ask where you found those? I see the wheels are white and not silver... My rear wheel is silver. If there is only 3 color combinations y is it so hard to find and example?!?!?! Hahahaha I thank you guys for the help. This is a very elusive color combo I guess.

In my last post I was trying to show the Winter Lake Blue. Those two bikes were 600's and had white wheels. In this LINK I posted earlier, the 4th dot down (5th line down) they say that the blue bikes had silver wheels.

I have not found an example of one with your color scheme yet. That's why I posted the CBR600 photos with the Winter Lake Blue.

The 600's had Winter Lake Blue over Pearl Crystal White with white wheels. The 1000F had Winter or Alaska Blue over Atlantic Gray with silver wheels. I think Atlantic Gray is a fancy way of saying silver.

Maybe a member with that color scheme will stop by. I have seen bikes with that blue but it looks more like a bluish gray to me, kind of like what a blueish lake looks like in the winter.

Ooooohhhh ok! I gotcha now... Thanks! I'll have to decide soon if I'll keep the original color or go black and red... Only because I'm ready to put the rear end back together and need to either keep the wheel silver or powder coat it red...

Just thought I'd update this correctly since I'm getting paint for an 87 Hurricane
  • It (87) was available in one of three color schemes: Black with Monza Red, Alaska Blue with Atlanta Gray, or Winterlake Blue with Atlanta Gray
  • The "HURRICANE" decal on the black bike was black
  • The tank top, inner fairing, and "1000" decal were the secondary color (the red or the gray)
  • The black bike had red wheels; but the blue bikes had silver wheels
In my case my paint code says PB187M which is WinterLake Metallic Blue ( The Primary Blue / Silverish Metallic)
Secondary color along the top of Tank and Infill panels is "Atlanta Gray" (which actually really looks more like a
charcoal blue tint metallic) !



It's all pretty damned confusing until you run several checks


Thought this may serve as a good reference for anyone later researching these pain-t

schemes



The 1988 then again was totally different with an actual silver color combo even tho
from a distance you'd think the 87 & 88 were same - they are not at all

Here's the 88 info

  • It was available in one of two color schemes: Starlight Silver Metallic with Karakorum Gray or Granite Blue Metallic with Monza Red
  • The "HURRICANE" tank decal on the blue bike was Silver
Ya has to be a regular Sherlock Holmes sometimes to decrypt this Honda Paint Code & Naming crapola out !
