Hi all, I have a 2002 k2 need to touch up the frame, anyone know the paint code ( Gloss black)
Cheers Duran
Probably the same black as the K4, K5 & K6. YAY Pearl Nebular Black. Unless someone has painted in rattle can gloss black.

The K2's were never released in Black Duran, so unless someone has fitted the black tank off a later model (in which case KiwiCol's suggestion is band on) then it sounds like yours has been resprayed at some point so could be any black. If yours has a faint blue speckle through it in the sunshine then that would "match" with the Suzuki black.
That aside, Halfords Black touchup is a good match for the frame so may do your tank, others have had their side panels sprayed in Ford Panther Black, which is a close match.
pssst, he is talking about touching up the black of the frame :whistling:
:facepalm:

DOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :facepalm: :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh:
Halfords Black touch-up works fine and matches exactly!!! :onya:
Your answer was there, just a bit ... elaborated :cool:
Any ideas for a car colour match for the glass splash white, need to touch the front guard?
That's an awkward one especially as you don't get the white mudguards in the UK (they only fitted them to the K8's which were only sold down under).
Glass Splash white is a 2 pack paint hence why awkward to get a good match.
On my K7 which had that as the white on the tank, the nearest I got was Ford Fiesta Frozen White - whether that is available down under I don't know. Not an exact match but pretty damn good
I need to re-paint the front mudguard on my 14 as it would appear to have been done at some point in it's life but the finish is dull so the paint codes are a great help :onya:
The grab rail on the bike is black but it's a K2 year - am I right in thinking it should be white? Not seen any other b/w one with a black grab rail :confused1:

If you have a B&W K2, then the grab rail should be white.
However if you want it polished, the paint comes off easy enough with Nitromors and its a nice bit of ally under there - you can then have a bling polished grab rail instead :8:

Cheers Barmy, that's what I thought. Didn't realise that about the grab rail though - thought it was some sort of plastic :facepalm:
Anyone know paint code for grey stripe on tank on 2006. Thanks
@BJ it's part of the decal not painted on the tank is only painted blue and white.
The decals are £112 from Suzuki and the S badge is £50 .
If your looking to paint something the same colour a good painter should be able to match it .
:cheers:
Thanks Seth. I'll rely on the painter. I bought a second hand tail piece which I am going to have painted white with matching grey stripe as per tank. May even start the striping from the side covers. Haven't decided yet. I don't particularly like the dark blueish back end. Was also thinking of stripping and polishing the passenger hand grip. Time will tell.
Remember to put up pics when its finished as i for 1 will be interested in the results .
:cheers:
Hello gentlemen from (too) warm Mauritius!
Thanks barmy for the useful paint codes, yet I have a question for you guys :grin:
I need to change my fuel tank, usual corrosion and want to turn it to White/Blue/Blue, and I've always dreamt of having my bike painted in the very first L99 theme, because it is to me by far the best looker (no offence to the owners of the much, MUCH faster black 14's! :laugh: ). I found one brand new in Germany at motorcyclespareparts.eu for a great price (go check them out, they ship worldwide, really worth the look)
I selected the K2 model to make sure I get the proper design (as attached). The part number is 4910042FA0L99 on their website, which does differ from the following years. Just wanted to confirm with you, if possible, that it's the correct design.
I did ask them first but they need my VIN to confirm, only "problem" is mine is a K5 that was probably black from factory, and I really don't want them to be confused as per what I'm looking for!
Thanks in advance :)
Looks like the right part#
Checked here, where it is 40€ less! Don't know about shipping cost difference though.

Weird thing (to me) is that the pics show SUZUKI text is NOT what I have. Mine (K2) has raised letters.
EDIT: Looked at Robinsons https://www.robinsonsfoundry.co.uk/shop/online-store/suzuki-parts-finder/gsx/gsx1400/k2-k3-k4-k5-k6-k7-2002-2007.htm#!gsx1400tank2 (https://www.robinsonsfoundry.co.uk/shop/online-store/suzuki-parts-finder/gsx/gsx1400/k2-k3-k4-k5-k6-k7-2002-2007.htm#!gsx1400tank2) and it appears that you can have either. The non-raised emblem is included with the tank. For the raised one you have to dish out extra dough.
I put these on my tank :)

For the earlier 14's, only the 2-tone paint jobs had decals - the single colours (grey, blue) both had raised badges. Likewise on the side panels the earlier single colour models had raised GSX1400, the two-tone colour (blue/white) did not
Thanks for the update!
I actually also went to check on that website too Barmy, but MSP really seems to stand out of the crowd, might only be just a feeling.
I did compare on their own website for the K2 to K6 and in every parts diagrams the drawings of the design and the parts number differ, matching the L99 and LR5 designs for the Blue / White versions. They also sent me the manual from the K2 after I posted so I think I'm safe to buy! :grin:
Thanks for the great support :worshippy:

Anyone know the paint code/name of the graphite side panels/fairings? I scuffed one of mine when taking off the tank (DOH)!!
Also, what black paint do I use to touch up the engine fins?

They are not painted, they are moulded in that colour so there is no code. All i can suggest is take them to a paint shop and get them to match the colour and get them sprayed.
As for black paint on the fins - ditto, although most Car Accessory shops sell gloss black heat proof black which would suffice for touching up the fins

As an alternative, might I suggest you consider wrapping them in a colour similar to that of the originals? Or you could look on eBay for a replacement as I've seen them appear on there for around £30. Painting them is probably the most expensive option, especially if you damage them again.

Heres mine, a Dec 01 built K2 model with what i understand is still the original tank and paint scheme, as the paint is good, with the usual small nicks and chips expected from an 18yo bike. Maybe this helps, the suzuki letters are under the clear coat.
Happy to be corrected, if its not the correct scheme etc.
Thanks also for the info and link to the websites for replacement tanks.

Hmnm - that's a K3 tank paint scheme though.....I would suggest if it was registered in Dec 2001 that at some stage the tank has been replaced as that tank design was not released until late 2002
:lol: thanks gsxbarmy, oops just realised my error, its a Dec 02 built K3, so correct paint scheme then. Appreciate the clarification.
