Altogether now.................13L.
this is the Suzuki code. But a good paint supplier can do it, it is now water based .

Thanks for the help guys,I think 28C Dune Gray Metallic is the colour i am after.
I am looking at a dark silver/gray metallic colour to go with the black on my Pop up.

Is 28c Dune Gray Metallic the same as Champange Silver,There is a post on here with a pic of a 400,I think it is an Ebay Link.
Sorry for all the questions but i want to get it right,Getting paint delivered up here is a nightmare !!

28c is the gun metal colour , if you like , either way the 400 was either 13l or 28c. Champagne silver was never a Suzuki colour , but a after market version of 15K which was the gun metal on the S2 750.
the necest colour to go with the black would be 23C CORONET SILVER as per the S4 pop up . like arnica said. this is best described as a the colour F1 mercs were painted when sponsored by west in the 2000 season.
