What part of the engine are you wanting to paint?? Any thing you put on will need to be a high temp ceramic style to keep the glossy look!

The sprocket cover in particular, I am swapping in a 600 cover and clutch release as I replace the hydraulic unit and the 600's cover is silver. I am hoping for a brand and color suggestion in what is available in rattle can engine paint for a fairly decent match.

Is that the Silver or the Dark Grey?? Any way you look at it a high temp paint is needed. I have all ways had good results using, Duplicolor engine enamel.

Captn Hooks Paint & Rescue LLC of Arizona can give you that guarantee.

Thanks guys! I've got the GSXR clutch installed in the Bandit and now the 600 Bandit sprocket cover and cable clutch actuator. Next warm spell I'll take it for a shake down cruise and if all is well pull the sprocket cover for paint.
