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.

Just thought I'd update this correctly since I'm getting paint for an 87 Hurricane
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 (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
