Default Tank colour codes?

I have a 1995 CBR900RR and it has original fairings in pretty good condition. Minor scratches here and there. No issue getting touch up paint for it - code nh343p.
Issue is it has a metal deep scratch on the red section of the tank. Not that crazy on getting tank resprayed but no where I can find the colour code. Really keen on restoring the original paint. Don’t mind some minor scratches etc.
Dies anyone no the colour code for the other colours on the tanks etc?
Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forum. She does look to be in great shape. I don't think that particular color scheme was sold in the US. There is information that the dealers have access to that we mere mortals don't. As an example the 1997 CBR600F3 has this information but is not often shown on public parts pages. Note that the position letters correspond to where the color is located on the decals. If you can get a name for the color, that may lead to a color code. BTW, what is shown for your color code is NH343K and not P.

Thanks so much for that info. There is a Honda dealer up the road so will try my luck,
The nh343p is the colour code for the black on the bike. Got a touch up kit from colour n drive which works really well.

Here is a pic of the tank.

To me it seems like painting the entire tank is the way to go. I have to image that there are shops around that would be able to match the paint color. The red color does not sit right next to another portion of red, so even if not exact, you won't be able to tell. It would just be chalked up to how the light was hitting it.
