Correct paint for a 1974 250ES?

[Dzundzun]

Hi all

I wonder if anyone can help me with modern paint codes for my re-build? It's sky blue and white similar to this one ...

Hope you found the actual codes, but cloud white and sky blue look rad.

Go on the motobins website and they can send you to a company called rs autopaints ( I think...) that say they can find any bike paint. There's a load of dropdowns but the ES isn't on there. If you e-mail them though they should be able to help you out. Alternatively if there is any original paint left on your bike a decent bodyshop should be able to match it. Ive just had my tank resprayed ( cream) and it is almost a perfect match to the original.
Hope this helps
