I must say the yellow on your tank doesn’t look quite right. Scorched Yellow had more of a gold look, which is why I alluded to a respray. I think you’re right that it was metalic but can’t recall exactly. Same colour was used on early Daytona 675 and Speed Triple so logic suggests metallic. Maybe repair/custom paint shop could help you match it.Excellent bit of deductionand you are spot on with the year. Scorched yellow was on my short list but isn't it a metallic yellow?

Just be happy I didn't throw US Navy Aviation Ground Support Equipment yellow into the mix!!!
Except "Yellow gear" is now painted white, ya crusty old salt!
Blasphemy!!! Yellow gear is, well, yellow!!!
Actually that is a good thing, now you can't accuse people of painting their cars on the weekends at the GSE shack as easily!!!

There are a few Triumph Yellows, and I recently sold a NOS Scorched Yellow Rocket III flyscreen that was going to be Phantom Blacked. by new owner.

Paint codes
I have an 08 classic in the Blood & Bone paint scheme. Does anyone know the paint codes so I can get some made up?
