2007 Honda-Motorcycle Touch Up Paint (9 OEM Colors)

The 2007 Honda-Motorcycle Vibe

Welcome to 2007-the year everyone was waiting in line for the first iPhone and listening to Rihanna on repeat. Over in the Honda garage, things were just as high-tech. Whether you were tucking behind the windscreen of a CBR1000RR or lounging on a Gold Wing, the aesthetic was all about precision. We've got 9 shades from this vintage in our database, and let me tell you, Honda wasn't playing it safe. They were leaning hard into those deep Tricoats like Candy Alizarin Red and Yellow Tricoat. It was a time when a bike didn't just have a color; it had a "presence" that required three different stages of paint just to wake up in the morning.

Paint Health Check

Now, here is the cold, hard truth from the spray booth: 2007 was right in the middle of the Thin Paint Era. By this point, the factory floor robots had become terrifyingly efficient. They learned exactly how little paint they could spray while still making the bike look showroom-ready. It's "Robot Efficiency" at its worst. While your Digital Silver Metallic might still look sharp, that factory clear coat is likely thinner than a gear-head's patience. These bikes are prone to "micro-chipping"-small impacts that don't just leave a mark, but actually stress the thin bond between the color and the clear, leading to edges that want to lift if you don't catch 'em early.

Restoration Tip

Since we're dealing with the era of stingy factory layers, my advice is simple: build layers slowly; don't blob it. When you're filling in a stone chip on that Cabernet Red Tricoat tank, don't try to be a hero and fill the crater in one shot. Because the original finish is so thin, a giant "blob" of touch-up paint will sit on the surface like a sore thumb and won't cure evenly. Use a steady hand to apply thin, surgical layers, letting each one set up before adding the next. You're trying to mimic a robot's precision, just with a little more soul and a lot more thickness.
