Anyone know the colours/meaning of this code? It's the plate on my old '94 M900. The bike has a nice custom paint scheme, but I'm curious if it originally had a red or black tank, seat cowl and front guard. The oem colour for wheels is black and the frame is the early silver/gold Ducati bronze colour which we matched as close as possible with a Ford colour. I know that black was an option in '94 besides the predominantly red bikes produced that year. Down the track the bike will be painted to whatever the original colour was out of the factory.
Cheers.

I'm told these are the colour codes. Anyone confirm this or able to decipher the numbers?

Similar format and numbering of decals on some other ducs have ignition info on them.

Here's some info, not super clear WTF it is...

Looking like that won't give any paint codes.

My Falloon Monster book says :

'93 was offered only in red tank, same as 1993 Supersport, paint code #7525.
Bronze frame, yellow hoop, and black wheels.

'94 was available with a black tank paint code #7510 as well as the red.
black wheels and bronze frame and hoop.
