I think there are two for yellow. Y124p and y163p.
Hope that helps.

Re: paint help
Agentpineapple has a yellow one. He will probably be able to confirm which colour yours is buddy.

Re: paint help
R.S.Bike paint may be able to help.Google them and look at their web site.I got a perfect match for my bike,or you could paint it red and look really good.
SO WHEN DOES THIS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER KICK IN
Re: paint help
Basically there was a light lemon yellow and a warmer custard shade of yellow. Has yours been resprayed or has the body work & tank just been swapped on from an umolested bike? If it has been resprayed it could be anything from a standard Honda shade to whatever the PO chose from a paint chart.
Take it to a motor paint factors (like this local to you > http://www.gramic-supplies.co.uk ) and match an unfaded area of the colour against a paint chart. But be aware yellow is hard to match as it will differ due to differences in batches and how it has been applied.
