I’m new to the forums and hoping I can get an answer for my question. I recently acquired a 1992 and i was wondering how I could tell what the factory colors were. The bike has been painted multiple times. I believe it was blue and black. It has blue wheels I have been searching around the Internet and found some that are black and blue but no blue wheels. Was this a option you could get?
I found the colors on the web but, the prices were very high so I went to a hobby shop and wow they had tons of paints for touchup and almost ten times less than at a paint shop. BTW i found red tape and blue plastic tape that matched and used these colors at the hobby shop

In the US, 92 F2's where black/blue/pink with white wheels.
If yours are blue, they were painted by someone, so no paint code for those.
NH193P Pearl Crystal White (wheels)
NH1Z Gloss Black (body base)
PB231 Real Blue (body)
Are these numbers the factory OEM paint numbers? How could I acquire these colors? The hobby shop idea is brilliant. I'm finding it super hard to find the front fairing decals for my 92 cbr. Any suggestions out there?

Yes, those are the factory OEM paint codes for the body panels that are painted.
Paint can be ordered from Color-Rite with those codes.
The stickers (with pink/purple/etc) don't have paint codes as far as I know.
You just have to order the stickers, if you can get them.
Hobby shops might get you close on some color.
I've also used vinyl shops before to get decals made, but that is expensive.
Solid color vinyl is cheap and easy to get.
I'd cut that as close to the shape of stock decal possible.
It won't perfectly match stock, but it would be close.
Restoring an F2 to stock look these days is kind of a losing battle.
