I searched the forum first, with nothing appreciable so here goes. I recently acquired a 74 RD350 and am going thru it. Thru a search it was called Ruby Red. Short of going to a paint shop and having it color matched, was wondering if anyone has found an automotive touch up paint that is "close" to the factory color.  This bike is a nice quality driver that is original, just looking for a code/car/year that was manufactured so I can acquire a touch up bottle.  I know paints have variances and hues, not interested in a perfect match just something close.  Thanks
