Does anyone know which plastics are the fluorescent red color and which are the deeper red color? Nuclear red shows from 92-99 and explosion red for 2000-2001. My recent 95 year bike purchase has a fluorescent rear fender and everything else is a deeper red but all are OEM.

Honda changed to the deeper red in 2000. However, I don't know if anyone still makes plastics in the flo red. I've looked for it for a 3rd gen aluminum frame CR and can't find anything.

Thanks for the response. I thought the flo red was the 90's color as well but wasn't positive on that. I think my front fender is even older, as per the numbers. It's appearing to be the earlier flash red color. Shows #61100-KA3-7310

I went with polisport plastics from eBay and they are nearly perfect. Rear fender doesn't fit as good as OEM but not a huge issue. Color is not dead on either but it still looks awesome.

Dam, your bike is looking pretty sharp. Nice color combo. I saw polisport on eBay but wasn't sure about their quality. Where did you get the graphics on the shrouds?

I've used Polisport for past bikes and have always been happy with their quality. Examples are 2008 crf450r, 2007 yz250f, and 94-98 kx125/250 plastics. The colors all looked good and the fit was perfect.

I have the UFO fenders and they are a very close match to the NOS Honda fender I have.

Those mid 90 Hondas are sure stand outs for that decade

Yeah that looks real good. Where did you get the CR shroud graphic?

I found them on eBay. I think it was a company from the Netherlands.

Evo MX is the only graphics company that seems to have EVERY OEM honda graphic. They also do not have their logo on the shroud. They are in the UK but its well worth it. Several high end builds that use their graphics.

Also, if you want red fork guards prepare to really hunt. Polisport does not make them, thats why I went with black.

You would think that the red would be their best seller. I actually thought you chose black for a reason. Your bike looks really good with the black. It makes the upper bike stand out without bringing the lower part into focus. Gives it a good look.

I just bought the Polisport kit from RMMC for my 97 CR. Color looks good and for 94.00 dollars for a complete kit it is the right price for sure! Does come with a red rear fender (97 was white OEM) but I don't care for my racer as I like it better than the white looks wise anyways.
