What's the colour code for the white 1150 ADV special edition?

[Tsiklonaut]

Never seen one in person. Anyone knows what's that colour called or what code, is it matte or enameled?

Just have a few repainting ideas spinning in my mind for me trusty 1100 that'll get the massive 41 litre tank installed. That dope-powder white the exemplar above has looks like an acceptable candidate

Thanks in advance

I dont know but my ££££ won't stretch to one, I wish they would their lovely.

There was a nw one in CW's when I bought my 1100 back in 2005 and I sooo wish I had been able to buy it.

Matt finish is a bastard to paint Margus - if it's a 2 pack then you spray the colour base coat as normal but need a lacquer with a proper matting agent in it. Very difficult to get the right 'mattiness' if you know what I mean/

Oh I wish you hadn't posted this picture I'm wondering how much I need to add to my budget for the new bike now.

I didn't know BMW refered to it as 'Alpine White Matt' I thought they called it Alpine White with no reference to its matt finish . When I ordered my 1200 GSA in Alpine White I was expecting a matt finish

So were the sales guys at NOG

Very tempting, but no, the GSV will remain in "bumble bee" black so where do I get a GSA to repaint?

Hey Margus....make sure you post some piccies if you go down the repsray route.

I have been thinking of painting my 02 1150GS white as I fancy a change and cant justify a new bike.

Anybodyelse gone down the ''white" route? Some whites look really good , others like 'old english white' on the mini do not. I reckon the alpine white BMW car colour is a good bet or porsche do a nice white.

Piccies of your white GS if you've got 'em?

Cheers for that man! Just asked for it and they reckon it's doable. We'll see how it comes out after it's ready then...

Soon m8, soon. It's a winter here, the paint shop sayed they can do it after 1-2 months, so I have to wait a bit.
