This is a picture of my bike. The paint work is in really good condition, I think it has had a respray. Is this the correct red for this year of bike. 1978.  |

There are many more qualified than me to answer this, but I am restoring two of these just now and in both cases the true colour was still present under the tank with traces on the back of the side panels. You may need to scrape a little of paint off underneath somewhere it won't matter. Turns out I had two Candy red bikes.  |

It looks like Helios Red from the 1978-80 years but has obviously been resprayed.
Your bike would of originally been one of three colours available in those kicker years........helios red, custom silver metallic or tanzanight blue with the thick blue striped tank decal.
